you to be skeptical,yet open,todo your own research and to seek your ownanswers.We are on this planet to learn asmuch as we can about ourselves and life,to become better people as we learn fromour mistakes and when our time here isup,we will move on to the next cycle oflife.During this journey,I will refer to afew of the books that were found among  \nthe Dead Sea Scrolls that were discoveredin eleven caves along the northwest shoreof the Dead Sea between 1947 and 1956.It is considered the greatest manuscriptdiscovery of modern times.Included inthese scrolls were fragments of every bookfrom the old testament of the Bible,exceptEster.These scrolls contained storiesthat were previously unknown aboutBible figures such as Enoch,Noah,andAbraham.For me,once I started to readthese other stories that were previouslyunknown to me it changed my entire life.It helped to fill in a lot of the space that Ihad when I read some of the stories in theBible.It answered my questions but mademe even more curious and excited at thesame time as to what I didn't know whichstarted me on my journey.","cbCaiv93NFpXqWqy","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiv93NFpXqWqy","pdf",2516682,104,"English","# Introduction: The
