you'll have to refresh my mind on this

Nothing exciting...just that he was a well-known religious historian who was included in the Dead Sea Scrolls exploration. Whether he always believed this stuff, believed this stuff after seeing the 'original sources', or doesn't believe it now and is just trying to force the DSS to make all of the Scroll information public, I don't know.

If you read his earlier stuff, he was very neutral in the beginning. One of the reasons for his inclusion on the team. After the initial studies, he started to raise issues in the 60's (especially about the restrictions to accessing the scrolls and the distribution of the info translated) but it was only after he got hold of some similar finds that were not controlled and sequestered by the church that he came up with his proposition about the entymological sense of the scriptures.
The Grand Design, reflected in the face of Chaos...it's a fluke!
