    In my Holy Bible the Sun is in capts how does the dead sea strolls depict it?

    Not being proficient with the DSS, I have been able to find that in the DSS (in Scroll 4Q76, Minor Prophets), the word "sun" is NOT in capitals. I'm guessing that the translators capitalized the word as it referred primarily to God (as in Psalm 84:11; Isaiah 60:19,20). And by extension, 'Sun' could be applied to Jesus, ( Luke 1:76-79; John 8:12).

    Maybe others with more information on this will contribute.
