Discusses the central rule documents, called "Serek" texts, produced by a Jewish community of the Essenes that lived at Qumran by the Dead Sea. The texts describe the life of an ascetic group that had rejected the hellenistic mainstream Jewish culture and had withdrawn into the desert to live a life of perfect obedience to the Torah.
