The Dead Sea Scrolls were discovered in a group of caves overlooking the Dead Sea, near Qumran in the former Roman province of Judea. They were mostly written in Hebrew and Aramaic.

The Dead Sea Scrolls are associated with an apocalyptic group, primarily the Essenes, due to their emphasis on eschatological themes, dualism, and the imminent end of times. The texts reveal a worldview that contrasts the righteous community with the sinful world, portraying a cosmic battle between good and evil. Additionally, their writings, such as the War Scroll, reflect a belief in divine intervention and the establishment of God's kingdom, further solidifying their identity as an apocalyptic sect.
