It is hard to say how many times the tetragrammaton (the sacred and unpronounced 4-letter name of God) appears in the scrolls. The dead sea scrolls were once scrolls, but most of them, now, are best described as confetti. The scrolls are a huge jigsaw puzzle, with many missing pieces. As a result, attempting to find the count of any particular word is difficult, at best. Typical fragments that have been reassembled from this confetti are full of holes, with enough text that we can figure out which biblical text it is, and where it seems to be consistent with the Masoretic text, we can use that to fill in the holes. Where the text is apparently different from the Masoretic text, back translation from the Septuigant or the Targums (Greek and Aramaic translations) sometimes matches the holes.
The Dead Sea Scrolls consisted of some 800 to 900 scrolls, some of them now fragmentary, found in eleven caves. They were stored in hundreds of jars.
The Dead Sea Scrolls Were discovered in eleven caves near the Dead Sea, between 1947 and 1956. The main language of the Scrolls was Hebrew, but there are many written in Aramaic and a few written in Greek.
The Dead Sea Scrolls are a collection of Jewish religious and secular documents, many of them dating back to pre-Christian times. There is no irrefutable reference among the scrolls to Jesus. There are references to cryptic persons such as the "Teacher of Righteousness", but there is no evidence that the Teacher, or any other person mentioned in the scrolls, is meant to be Jesus.Nevertheless, some scholars have sought to find evidence about early Christianity among the scrolls. For example, Robert Eisenman (The Dead Sea Scrolls and the First Christians) sees a possible reference to Jesus in the Damascus Document, and believes "Teacher of Righteousness" may have been James the Just.
Greek scrolls were used to relay messages to many people. Often times these scrolls carried messages from leaders of various nations.
i think their were 10 that were written in that language
The Dead Sea Scrolls were hidden in caves overlooking the Dead Sea around 70 CE, at the end of the First Roman-Jewish War. They included many standard Jewish scriptures, as well as a number of scolls concerned with rules and practices of the community that hid them. Since John the Baptist was executed in 36 CE, long before the Dead Sea Scrolls were hidden, he was of course not influenced by these scrolls themselves. Whether he was influenced by the scrolls before they became "Dead Sea Scrolls", or by other copies of them, depends on whether John was a member of the community that hid them. This possibility continues to be debated.
AnswerThe Dead Sea Scrolls were a collection of 800-900 documents, many consisting of ancient biblical texts. Some of the srolls are now mere fragments, with over 50,000 individual pieces having been found.
The Dead Sea Scrolls included nearly all Old Testmament books of the Bible, which gives many examples of forgiveness (e.g., Joseph forgiving his brothers in Genesis and throughout the Psalms).

yes, but he failed many many times then he was killed
None of the Bible is based on the Dead Sea Scrolls as originals. The Scrolls consisted of copies of many of the existing books of the Old Testament, plus a number of secular documents containing rules and administrative procedures of the community at the Dead Sea. The principal value of the Scrolls is that they enable scholars to see what the books of the Old Testament actually said up to the time in the first century when they were hidden, and what changes have occurred since that time.
The Dead Sea Scrolls are ancient Jewish manuscripts, most written in Hebrew, some in Aramaic and Greek, many over 2,000 years old, from before the time of Jesus. They include lengthy manuscripts, scrolls and thousands of fragments obtained between 1947 and 1956, from 11 caves near Qumran, near the Dead Sea. About a fourth of the scrolls are portions of the Hebrew Bible text, but they also include non-Biblical Jewish writings.
