Q: Image copyright University of Haifa Image caption The fragments of Dead Sea Scroll took a year to piece together 
  
 One of the last remaining obscure parts of the Dead Sea Scrolls has been deciphered by researchers in Israel. 
  
 Sixty tiny fragments were pieced together over a period of a year, identifying the name of a festival marking the changes between seasons. 
  
 It also revealed a second scribe corrected mistakes made by the author. 
  
 The 900 scrolls, written by an ancient Jewish sect, have been a source of fascination since they were first discovered in a cave in Qumran in 1947. 
  
 The collection is considered the oldest copy of the Hebrew Bible ever found, dating to at least the 4th Century BC. 
  
 It is not known who wrote the scrolls, although some scholars have credited an ascetic desert sect called the Essenes.

 The sections of the scrolls were pieced together by Dr Eshbal Ratson and Prof Jonathan Ben-Dov of Haifa University. They were written in code and some of the fragments were smaller than 1 sq cm (0.155 sq inches). 
  
 They detailed special occasions celebrated by the ancient Jewish sect, which observed a unique 364-day calendar. 
  
 These included festivals of New Wheat, New Wine and New Oil, which were related to the Jewish festival of Shavuot. 
  
 The researchers also discovered the name used by the sect for a festival observed four times a year that marked the transition between the seasons - Tekufah. The same word in modern-day Hebrew means "period". 
  
 They said they were assisted in deciphering the code by annotations discovered in the margins by a scribe correcting omissions made by the author. 
  
 "What's nice is that these comments were hints that helped me figure out the puzzle - they showed me how to assemble the scroll," Dr Ratzon told the Haaretz newspaper. 
  
 The priceless Dead Sea Scrolls were found in caves in Qumran on the western shore of the Dead Sea between 1947 and 1956. They were reportedly first discovered by a young Bedouin shepherd searching for lost sheep. ||||| Scientists at Haifa University have reconstructed the contents of one of the last two undeciphered Dead Sea Scrolls, revealing a unique calendar used by a Jewish sect that lived in the Judean Desert during the... ||||| Utilizing 60 minuscule fragments of mysterious ancient code from the second-to-last unpublished Dead Sea Scrolls, researchers at the University of Haifa have decoded a unique 364-day calendar once used by the enigmatic Qumran Sect in the Judean Desert. 
  
  
  
 The 900 Dead Sea Scrolls (also known as the “Qumran Scrolls”) dating to the Second Temple Period were discovered in the 1940s and 1950s in the Qumran Caves near the Dead Sea. 
  
  
  
  
  
 The Qumran Sect referred to itself as the Yahad (“Together Community”) and was a fanatical group that lived a hermitic lifestyle in the desert, facing persecution by the dominant establishment of the time.They wrote numerous scrolls, a small number of them in code – including the 60 relics on parchment that Dr. Eshbal Ratson and Prof. Jonathan Ben-Dov of Haifa University’s Department of Bible Studies were able to translate.The researchers spent a year painstakingly studying the tiny fragments from the second-to-last scroll, some which measured smaller than one square centimeter.“The reward for their hard work is fresh insight into the unique 364-day calendar used by the members of the Judean Desert sect, including the discovery for the first time of the name given by the sect to the special days marking the transitions between the four seasons,” the university said in a statement on Sunday.Although an earlier researcher who examined the 60 pieces postulated that they came from several different scrolls, Ratson and Ben-Dov proved in an article recently published in the Journal of Biblical Literature that the fragments actually constitute a single scroll.According to the researchers, the calendar was involved in one of the fiercest debates between different sects during the late Second Temple period.“An important peculiarity of the present discovery is the fact that the [Qumran] sect followed a 364-day calendar,” the university said.“The lunar calendar, which Judaism follows to this day, requires a large number of human decisions. People must look at the stars and moon and report on their observations, and someone must be empowered to decide on the new month and the application of leap years.”By contrast, the researchers described the 364-day calendar as “perfect.”“Because this number can be divided into four and seven, special occasions always fall on the same day,” they said in a joint statement.“This avoids the need to decide, for example, what happens when a particular occasion falls on the Sabbath, as often happens in the lunar calendar. The Qumran calendar is unchanging, and it appears to have embodied the beliefs of the members of this community regarding perfection and holiness.”MOREOVER, RATSON and Ben-Dov said the scroll describes two special occasions not mentioned in the Bible, but which are already known from the Temple Scroll of Qumran: The festivals of New Wine and New Oil.“These dates constituted an extension of the festival of Shavuot as we know it today, which celebrates the New Wheat,” they said.“According to this calendar, the festival of New Wheat falls 50 days after the first Sabbath following Passover; the festival of New Wine comes 50 days later; and after a further interval of 50 days, the festival of New Oil is celebrated.”The scroll also provided some other enlightening finds.The researchers were aware from the previous scrolls that the members of the sect celebrated the transition between the seasons by adding a special day for each of the four changes of season.Until now, however, the name of these special days remained unknown.The present scroll reveals that these days were referred to by the word tekufah, which translates from Hebrew to “period.”“This term is familiar from the later rabbinical literature and from mosaics dating to the Talmudic period, and we could have assumed that it would also be used with this meaning in the scrolls,” Ratson and Ben-Dov explained.“But, this is the first time it has been revealed.”The present scroll also provides additional information about the customs of its authors.“It emerges that the person who wrote the scroll – probably one of the leaders of the sect familiar with the secret code – forgot to mention several special days marked by the community,” they noted.As a result, another scribe was forced to correct the errors, adding the missing dates in the margins between the columns of text.“The scroll is written in code, but its actual content is simple and well-known and there was no reason to conceal it,” they said. “This practice is also found in many places outside the Land of Israel, where leaders write in secret code even when discussing universally-known matters, as a reflection of their status.”The custom, the researchers explained, was intended to show that the author was familiar with the code, while others were not.“However, this present scroll shows that the author made a number of mistakes,” they noted.“This scroll includes numerous words and expressions that we find later in the Mishna [“review” - the first major written redaction of the Jewish Oral Law]. This shows once again that many of the subjects discussed by the scribes several centuries later had origins that predated the Second Temple period,” they concluded. ||||| .- The Dead Sea Scrolls, which are among the oldest extant biblical manuscripts, have been a topic of interest since they were discovered in the Qumran Caves in the West Bank beginning in 1946. 
  
 More recently, Israeli scholars have pieced together some of the last fragments of the ancient documents, revealing new information about the scrolls. 
  
 Dr. Eshbal Ratson and Professor Jonathan Ben-Dov of Haifa University decoded 60 previously unread fragments over the course of a year to discover a festival marking each changing season which was celebrated by the Jews. The researchers also found the name for the festival: the Hebrew word “tekufah,” meaning “period.” 
  
 These fragments, some of which were smaller than a centimeter, identified the seasonal celebrations, which included the festivals of New Wheat, New Wine, and New Oil, which are linked to the Jewish festival of Shavuot. These celebrations were based on the 364-day Jewish calendar. 
  
 Additionally, the researchers found that a second scribe made additional notes on the scroll, correcting some mistakes and omissions made by the original author. According to Ratzon, these notes made it easier for them to decode the ancient scrolls. 
  
 “What’s nice is that these comments were hints that helped me figure out the puzzle – they showed me how to assemble the scroll,” said Ratzon, according to the BBC. 
  
 While it is not known who penned the ancient texts, some have attributed them to the Essenes – a Jewish sect who lived in the desert. The scrolls, around 900 in number, contain Hebrew, Greek, and Aramaic writing, and are thought to date to between 300 BC and AD 100. 
  
 According to The Telegraph, a statement from Haifa University said that both Ratson and Ben-Dov have moved on to decoding the last remaining scroll. |||||
A: 
Israeli researchers say they have deciphered one of the last remaining puzzles of the Dead Sea Scrolls. It turns out the ancient authors of this particular section were writing about the changing of the seasons and the calendar they used to mark and celebrate such occasions, reports the Catholic News Agency. Two professors from Haifa University spent a year piecing together about 60 tiny fragments that had been written in code thousands of years ago, reports the BBC. The researchers concluded that the authors, possibly members of a desert sect known as the Essenes, were writing about a festival held four times a year to mark the new seasons, and they further determined that the name for this festival was "Tekufah," which means "period" in today's Hebrew. One interesting tidbit: It seems that an ancient editor went over the manuscript after it was originally written and made corrections in the margins. "What's nice is that these comments were hints that helped me figure out the puzzle—they showed me how to assemble the scroll," Haifa's Eshbal Ratson tells Haaretz. The researchers also were able to conclude that the sect used a 364-day calendar to mark the year, reports the Jerusalem Post. “Because this number can be divided into four and seven, special occasions always fall on the same day,” say the researchers. The professors found this to be "perfect." (Last year, researchers discovered what they believe to be another Dead Sea Scrolls cave, but looters beat them to it.)
