Although one may consider the book dated (being written in the 50's), I found it to be a rather interesting overview of the subject. It gives a review of the discovery and dating of the dead sea scrolls, then moves on into an analysis of the sect of the scrolls (essenes) and later on into possible influence of Christian movement. The volume is very readable and should hold the interest of any who choose to read it. Then if one is still eager for more I would suggest reading Geza Vermes "The complete dead sea scrolls in english". ISBN 0713991313 nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Davies says, for example, "Nowhere in the Synoptic Gospels, even accepting the record exactly as it is, do we find a clear indication that Jesus regarded himself as the Messiah from the beginning of his ministry." Unfortunately, "accepting the record exactly as it is," Davies would be found to be incorrect (see Luke 2:49; 4:18-20; Matthew 21:13; John 2:16, Jesus confirms his self-knowledge of his unique relationship with God when he says, 'My Father's house," and quoting OT texts and referring it to himself).
Of course, the book is outdated (1956) and, perhaps, a more modern reading of the DSS might correct much of Davies speculative interpretations of the DSS. Nevertheless, this is a great read and I do recommend it (despite it being outdated and conjectural, as he himself admits, with reference to its relative importance in understanding Jesus Christ as revealed in the Bible), at least, as an intro into the DSS.
