520 |a Did the Vatican suppress the publication of the Dead Sea Scrolls? Why has there been such a delay in making them public?

In Jesus, Qumran and the Vatican two Protestant scholars examine these issues and more, producing an account of the present state of research on the scrolls and of the meaning and implications of the scrolls for the study of Christianity. --From publisher's description.
