Abstract

"The Essene sect was one of the most remarkable in both general and Jewish History. The Essenes sought a better world with a superior societal order, and attempted to realize these in their way of life ... This was a unique Jewish sect, some of whose writings were found in the Qumran caves and verified what had been known about the sect from other sources ... Prof. Flusser invites the reader to take a thrilling tour of the spiritual realms of the Essenes, and at the end of this tour he believes that the reader will ask himself whether he too, as the Essenes, longs for a better world, in which one "moves away from evil and clings to the good, and acts with truth, charity and justice in the world""--
