The Community Rule scroll, or the Manual of Discipline, contains a set of rules by which the authors of the Dead Sea Scrolls conducted their lives. It gives us a glimpse into their way of life and world view. The fragment pictured here will be featured in the third set of five scrolls displayed in The Dead Sea Scrolls: Words That Changed the World exhibition, which opens on March 12, 2010 at the Science Museum of Minnesota.
