    I imagine this may not be new information, but new to me...

    27 Dead Sea Scrolls will be on Display at the San Diego Natural History Museum (running June 29-Dec 31):

    Here's a listing of scrolls on exhibit through September: http://www.sdnhm.org/scrolls/description.html

    October-December: http://www.sdnhm.org/scrolls/description_2.html

    I think I'll wait until the 2nd exhibition. It features a Genesis commentary (with the flood chronology using the 364-solar calendar) and the Songs of the Sabbath Sacrifice (also reflecting use of the 364-day solar calendar). Also, the Messianic Apocalypse, the Book of War, and the book of Enoch in this exhibit, all look particularly fascinating.


    Has anyone here gone yet?

    I'll be looking for good things to point out a certain JW while I'm at it.

    Edit: ok, first time posting on Firefox, so please bear with the formatting til I figure this out...
