BAS's Acclaimed Video Lectures: Series One:
The Dead Sea Scrolls and the New Testament
James VanderKam
VanderKam delivers a point-by-point comparison of the Dead Sea Scrolls and the New Testament. He asserts that while the scrolls should not be directly linked to the Bible, they reveal a community living before, during and after Jesus, and cast much light on the early relationship of Christianity to Judaism.

James VanderKam is the John A. O'Brien Professor of Theology at the University of Notre Dame. He is one of the world's leading authorities on the Dead Sea Scrolls and the world of Jesus. The author of several books on the Dead Sea Scrolls, including The Dead Sea Scrolls Today (Eerdmans, 1994), VanderKam is the editor of the Jubilees texts from Qumran Cave 4, an editor of the forthcoming Oxford Encyclopedia of the Dead Sea Scrolls, an editor of the journal Dead Sea Discoveries and chair of the Ancient Manuscripts Committee of the American Schools of Oriental Research.
