Description
English: Portion of a photographic reproduction of the Great Isaiah Scroll, the best preserved of the biblical scrolls found at Qumran. It contains the entire Book of Isaiah in Hebrew, apart from some small damaged parts. This manuscript was probably written by a scribe of the Jewish sect of the Essenes around the second century BC. It is therefore over a 1000 years older than the oldest Masoretic manuscripts.

This picture shows all of Isaiah 53 (and is mostly identical to the Masoretic version).
Date +/- 2nd century BC
Source Website of The Israel Museum, Jerusalem: [1].
Author Photography by Ardon Bar Hama (see [2], author of original document is unknown.
