The Kregel Pictorial Guide to the Dead Sea Scrolls: How They Were Discovered and What They Mean

Sound research and illuminating visuals make biblical and historical times and teachings come alive for today’s middle-school and high-school students as well as pastors looking for a concise overview of familiar topics. This volume continues the valuable tradition of the best-selling Kregel Pictorial Guide series with their full-color introductions that make history easy to understand and interesting to learn. In the Kregel Pictorial Guide to the Dead Sea Scrolls, author Joel Willitts introduces readers to the scrolls―what they are, who wrote them, and what they tell us―and further expounds on the important role these scrolls play in understanding Christianity and the Bible.

Joel Willitts (ThM, Dallas Theological Seminary), a youth worker in the United States before pursuing a PhD at the University of Cambridge, has written scholarly articles on the historical Jesus and Paul’s use of the Old Testament.
