Last of 8 scrolls deciphered
Christian doctrines revealed
United Press International
BERKELEY, Calif. — The last
and most complete of the Dead Sea
Scrolls discloses remarkable, new
evidence about the origin of Chris
tian teaching on sex, marriage and
divorce, a Biblical scholar said Sun
day.
Called the “Temple Scroll’’ be
cause much of it deals with recon
struction of the temple in
Jerusalem, the newly published
document sets forth a code of be
havior forbidding divorce and
polygamy. It also supports celibacy
by banning sex anywhere within the
walls of Jerusalem.
The new scroll is the last of eight
well-preserved documents found in
a cave near the Dead Sea by a Be
douin youth in 1947. Seven other
scrolls were deciphered and studied
during the 1950s, but the Temple
Scroll was not uncovered until Israel
seized Arab territory in the 1967
war.
The scroll was found in a shoe box
hidden under the floor of an Arab
shop whose owner was involved in
purchase, of the earlier documents.
During the past 10 years it has been
carefully unrolled and deciphered
by Yagael Yadin, the Israeli scholar
who is now deputy prime minister.
It has not yet been translated into
English.
It is the longest scroll found — 19
pages stretching 28 feet.
Prof. Jacob Milgrom of the Uni
versity of California helped Yadin in
the restoration work.
“In my opinion, it is probably the
most important scroll,” Milgrom
said in an interview with United
Press International. “To begin with,
in this scroll, God speaks in the first
person. This puts the scroll in a spe
cial category. You are dealing
with revelation. His authorized
word.”
He cited the declaration in the
scroll that anyone “aspiring to live
within the shadow of the temple in a
permanent state of holiness must be
leading a single life.’ It forbids sex
ual relations anywhere in the entire
city of Jerusalem.
The document also “forbids the
king to take more than one wife and
says he may not remarry as long as
she is alive,” Milgrom said. “The
implications are obvious. Divorce is
prohibited.
“We see for the first time that the
views of marriage and divorce which
were expressed in certain tenden
cies within the Gospels of the New
Testament can be traced to teach
ings of this sect, which antedates the
time of Jesus by at least a century
and a half.”
The scrolls were found near the
community of Qumran, occupied
from about the middle of the second
century B.C. to the time of the
Roman invasion in 67 A.D., by a
fringe sect within Judaism” which
had gone there to escape the “pol
lution” its leaders felt had afflicted
Jerusalem, Milgrom said.
