The Dead Sea Scrolls in English by Geza Vermes
'This significantly expanded and revised fourth edition of what has always been the best English translation of the Scrolls has become a combination of two books: Vermes has replaced nearly all of the original Introduction with an abridged version of the corresponding material from The Dead Sea Scrolls: Qumran in Perspective. He has also added new translations of material that has been published since the last edition appeared in 1975. By far still the best edition of the scrolls in English.'

Géza Vermes was a world-renowned specialist on the historical Jesus, Christian origins, and the Dead Sea Scrolls, and was Professor Emeritus of Jewish Studies at the University of Oxford in the United Kingdom. He popularized the concept of Jesus as a 1st-century Jewish holy man with the publication of Jesus the Jew (1973). His book The Dead Sea Scrolls in English (1962) was the first to introduce the Scrolls to an English audience, selling over half a million copies.
