Ancient Prophecies from the Dead Sea Scrolls
This book contains several prophecies from the Dead Sea Scrolls. It discusses fragments of Essene commentaries regarding both the major and the minor prophets in addition to Essene commentary on other prophecies from the Bible. This book also contains fragments of non-biblical prophecy books (manuscripts from the School of the Prophets) along with the Essene commentary on these works. You will learn what the Zadok priests taught about the End Times. Most of these predictions focus on the first coming; but there are also a few that teach about the signs of the Second Coming, including the Antichrist, and there is even a prediction involving modern-day Nephilim.
In some cases, the Dead Sea Scroll prophecies covered in this book predicted the actual fulfillment dates for these prophecies, and those dates proved to be 100% accurate. The Essenes who wrote these Dead Sea Scrolls believed that the Messiah was God incarnate and that He would die for our sins and reconcile us to God the Father—and they predicted His first coming would occur in AD 32!
The Essenes also taught that there would be an evil gentile king who would rule over Israel with the help of (ten) nations and that this rule would last only seven years. But they also predicted other signs that would precede this event. One such sign is a war in Gaza, and another is a specific 70-year period sometime between the return of the state of Israel (1948) and the great tribulation.
This book and the book, Ancient Testaments of the Patriarchs, give a greatly detailed understanding of what the Essenes knew about the End-Times.

For Serious Bible Students
Dr. Johnson continues to do an excellent job researching and translating the Dead Sea scrolls to enlighten us about the writings of the Essenes. I found his commentaries on the prophecies continue to add to the validity of the Bible and end time prophecies in general. I only wish that we had more complete scrolls to get the full story.
It is helpful to have read his other books first, which gives you additional insight into the Essenes and their importance in Bible prophecy. I highly recommend all of his books as he has become one of the preeminent scholars in our modern age on the Jewish calendar and the Essenes.
