1966
The diary-entry for today is as follows: Sat.—Went to see dead sea scrolls. Bit disappointing. It’s the writings of a Jewish Sect called Essenes at Qumran also other scrolls. Controversy ’cos they had a ceremony like our breaking of bread service, and various other doctrines. Not very impressed. I think I’m convinced enough that my God is real.
An exhibition of the Dead Sea Scrolls was shown at the John Rylands Library, Manchester.
