More than 80 fragments of Nahum and Zechariah (not all have text written on them) were recently discovered in the Judean desert. These are the first Dead Sea Scrolls discovered in 60 years. Apparently, these fragments belong to a scroll of the Minor Prophets that was discovered in this same cave more than 60 years ago. That scroll, and these new fragments, are written in Greek rather than Hebrew. One of the interesting features of this scroll is that the name of God is written in paleo Hebrew, which is the ancient Hebrew script. Hopefully more scrolls will soon be discovered.

This like merely like finding old scrolls used to compile the King James Bible it doesn’t add anything to knowledge or take away anything of belief.

While the KJV translators did a remarkable job, access to ancient manuscripts was extremely limited, comparatively non-existent relative to the vast number of ancient texts available today. On the whole, the KJV was not a fresh start on a clean sheet of paper but a blended revision of the Tyndale, Wycliff, Bishops Bible, and Latin Vulgate. No other Bible version surpasses the KJV for prose and scripture memorization, but the MEV, NET, NASB and other modern translations are much clearer for most readers.
