The Qumran people had a hard time making the scrolls. They write the scroll backward, no spaces, and a different language. They wrote it this way so only people of their kind could read it. They believed someone could find their scroll and defeat their enemies who called themselves "The Sons of Darkness." The Qumran people believed in Christianity and Judaism.
