Although Israel is a regular location for religiously significant, historical discovery, no one expected this. The Israeli Antiquities Authority reported that it discovered additional fragments of the Dead Sea Scrolls after an exhaustive, intense examination of the Judean Desert, the first find of its kind in six decades. These new Scrolls contained fragments of the twelve minor prophets’ books, including Nahum and Zechariah. The new find was supposed to be part of the Minor Prophets scroll, which was discovered in the early 1950s and contains information about the End of Days. Because of the hot, arid environment in which the fragments were discovered, the Scrolls endured for thousands of years.
