Why has the Israeli government taken control of the "Dead Sea Scrolls" and kept them secret?

Because they dont want us to know anything and things hidden from us. Whereas the bible has been re-written and re-written by man in diffrent languages. Some parts of the bible were actually left out. It never did make it due to the majority of other churches in 1st centery. The book of enoch and St thomas was never mention. In fact back then, they never did workship any female aspects as mention in the hidden scrolls.. and were supose to believe what man has interpreted and wrote what ever they wanted to wrote? I dont think so...is why I study all religions and take religion like a buffet, I get what I agree on and leave the rest behind and just pray about it.

It is pretty far removed from the original scrolls. In much earlier days, the clergy were the only ones who could read and write, so the ppl had to come to church to learn the bible from them. Then, the clergy started reinterpreting things to their own benefit. I think there is a line about every man should have an acre of land, but every clergyman should have 100 square acres. Stuff like that makes it hard to believe any of the rest of the doctored text.  \n\nOr, in that show that's on right now about the lost Gospel of Judas, they talk about censorship there as well, where things that don't fit with what the people in power want didn't make it into the next rendition.

The Jewish Entity "Known as the State of Israel" is not a Democracy, it's an Aparthied state because it is based on pre-determined preferences and settings and is constructed on occupied Palestinian land. Number one, if you're Jewish, you can immediatly get citizenship and set up shop, and run a more than normal life. But if you're not Jewish, i.e., if you're a Palestinian Christian or Muslim, you would be denied many rights, especialy if you're from the two occupied regions of the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, they you HAVE no rights over there, the Israeli elected government would shoot you down on suspicion alone.\n\nThis is very similar if not worse than the South African Aparthied.\n\nSo, Zionist politics is designed to serve one purpose and one purpose alone, and that is to protect one of the greatest thefts of all times, the theft of Palestine and to hush hush on it as if it was alright.\n\nI recently asked an Israeli associate, I asked her, If the Arab Israelis want to establish a Majority government, would you allow them to rule Israel? to which she responded: "NEVER! THIS IS A JEWS ONLY STATE"... i guess that sums it up. Israel is not a democracy, it's a theocracy trying to disguise itself as a democarcy, but it fools only those who CAN be fooled, i.e. the uneducated or those who refuse to see the light.\n\nKuLock: Your answer is far away from reality. Every Jew in the world who wants to make money and run away from Poverty immigrated to Occupied Palestine. Those people ran Jewish terrorist Organizations like the Haganah and the Argon, who were horrible in thier crimes, look em up, they would enter Palestinian towns and villages and kill everyone, even the baby in the woman's womb. Palestinians have lived there for thousands of years and it's all documented in Britain, Istanbul and all the old capitals. It's Zionists who claim the pathetic lie that the land was people-less for a stateless people, this is a lie you could have pulled 50 years ago, but everyone knows it's a propaganda lie now, just like Hitler's proclamation that Germans were a super or special race. All lies on top of lies, suit yourself and enjoy those lies demise. :)\n\nShalom.

Historically or Biblically? This area has been occupied more the a Greyhound bus terminal toilet. If you mean during the last 100 years, Isreal was created by land taken from Arab farmers. When Palestine was still a British protectorate, Jewish terrorists organized groups to blow up train tracks, power stations and government installations(sound familiar) When the state of Isreal was declared, paniced Arab farmers fled the region and Jewish settlers took over their lands. These farmers settled in Syrian, Lebanese and Jordanian refugee camps which became known as the Palistinian problem. More land was taken over after a series of almost comical wars(where the US military supplied and backed the state of Isreal defeated all Arab states) occupied those lands run over during the wars and did not attempt to give them back until recently. What caused this? Collective world guilt over the Holocaust, the common belief at the time that the general Arab population of that area were just ignorant and itinerant farmers that had no real right to the land, a Zionistic , and sometimes hysterical approach of Jewish settlers in the 60's and 70's along with the generally unsupportable stance of many successive US governemnts has led to the intolerable situation that we see today. The Gov. of Isreal, the US Gov. The UN, the British as well as the intransigient position of the Arab world where Isreal is concerned has led to this mess. The world should back off and let those in the area determine their future.

You claim to be ex-military yet you still manage to be totaly clueless about the realities of war.\n\nAfter Israel pulled out of the Gaza, sudden peace did not ensue in case you did not notice.\n\nGaza was, and is, a hotbed for terrorism. This has neccessitated that Israel go back into Gaza and do something about it.\n\nCurrently, one of the major issues is that dozens of tunnels were dug and are being used to smuggle all kinds of weapons from Egypt. Israel has the full right to do something about it.

Sometimes governments have rules on how long the keep records secret. As for the Red Cross I am not sure why they would have kept all of those records secret for so long.\n\nThere are currently millions of Holocaust documents being help in secret while the countries holding them decide how to release them. It is possible the Red Cross was not wanting to release too much personal information by releasing them too early. \n\nIt is strange they would have held them for so long.

Of course there's a significant element of truth to it. Why do you think the Catholic Church is so wound up about it ? Why haven't scholars been allowed to translate the Dead Sea Scrolls in the public arena ? Catholicism has manipulated the truth for it's own ends .... it's used threats over the centuries to ensure there is no debate. The end is nigh .... if there's nothing to hide they'd happily open their vaults & show the full spectrum of religeous texts .... not just the ones they'd like us to see. Now the truth is becoming available with or without their consent - Truth Lives once more.

Israel has never blinked in their history!  They have to show that they have no weakness or they will be at the mercy of all the Arab countries around them.  Hamas will have to blink or the Gaza will not be available to them anymore.  Israel will just go in and restore their authority!

I would guess that they buried it or disposed of it someplace. I would like to know where in the Bible it talks of the Jewish law you are speaking of. If you could add the verse/s in the additional details area. I would like to learn more about that.

This could be the strongest point about the 'hidden agenda' of those who perpetrated to TWEAK the compilation of the Holy Bible by simply ignoring the so-called "missing years" of Yeshua ibn Joseph.\n\nIf you study about the ESSENES --the Brotherhood, a clustered community of prophets, visionaries and scribes that banded together since the time of Elijah-- they were the third largest group among the Jewry. The largest groups were the Pharisees, followed closely by the Sadducees, and then by the Essenes. Yet there is NOT ONE SINGLE mention about the Essenes in the Bible. Why is that so??\n\nSimply because that was the very group targeted by the early church [the RCC, who gained power from Constantine] to be OBLITERATED COMPLETELY from the face of the Earth and all historical and recorded references made about them as well as all their writings. The Essenes were the same ones who followed The Law for generations and who "separated" themselves from the rest of the Jewish cities to honor their Nazarite's Vows, which had been institued since the time of Moses...\n\nIt was through them that the maiden, Mary --daughter of Anna and Joachim-- was chosen to be the vessel for arrival of the Promised Messiah. There were two known communities of Essenes during that time: one in Nazareth, located at the foothills of Mt. Carmel; and the other in Qumran, high atop the cliffs overlooking the Dead Sea.\n\nMary, the young maiden, and Joseph, a respected elder and builder of their community both belonged to the community in Nazareth. Her first cousin Elizabeth, and husband Zecheriah --high priest/in-charge of the incense at the Temple in Jerusalem-- lived in Qumran where John the Baptist was born.\n\nAs the proclaimed MESSIAH, Savior and King of the Jews, since the time of Anunciation ['the Announcement'] it was already widespread among the Essene communities about His arrival. His Nativity in Bethlehem --House of David, family line of Joseph and Mary-- was well protected by members of the Brotherhood at all times, up to and including their departure to Egypt and safe return back to their town of Nazareth.\n\nI would venture to conjecture the following:\n\nYeshua's early childhood, or at least His first seven years, were spent with His mother and He obeyed all her laws at home. Between seven years to fourteen years old, He learned His father's trade as a carpenter and began to learn all the Sacred Scriptures [about Him, the Elect One] from the Masters in Mt. Carmel-- the original headquarters of Prophet Elijah and other 100 prophets that followed him since. This would explain why Yeshua/Jesus, at 12, began questioning the practices of the Pharisees and Sadducees at the Temple since, by then, He had already learned the Scriptures for at least five years...\n\nBy fourteen years old, He began His own ministry within the community of the Brotherhood and preached to the youth and the new members who were made welcome to join their open communities. By twenty-one years old, He had chosen the few "elects" among His early disciples and was by then known as The Master among the Brotherhood. Between twenty-one and twenty-eight, it is conceivable that He too was happily married as was the Jewish tradition among sons of men. This could also account for the various travels that He has been credited to have made in various places, learning their ways and bringing His message of the SEVENFOLD TEACHING that was given by the Ancient Great Ones who have seen the face of God...\n\nAnd by the time He was thirty, He began His public ministry to the rest of the Jews outside the Brotherhood.\n\nPresumably, being surrounded by disciples, scribes and elders of the Essene communities, the ENTIRE LIFE OF YESHUA was chronicled and written by at least hundreds, maybe even thousands of those whom The Master had affected... before He began to "choose" His "twelve [public] Apostles" soon after meeting
