I think some of the comments here are seeing the word contrarian and dead seas scrolls and assuming he must have had some church forgery grand conspiracy theory instead of the more insider debate he was involved in. For anyone who is interested in the scrolls, I really recommend the great courses class on them which is pretty affordable via audible: https://www.audible.com/pd/The-Dead-Sea-Scrolls-Audiobook/B00D97T33G https://www.audible.com/pd/The-Dead-Sea-Scrolls-Audiobook/B0...
- superjan 6y agoI can second that recommendation. Contrarians do get their mention in the course albeit briefly. It also gives fascinating insight into the different sects of judaism in that period.
