Member of the sect associated with the Dead Sea Scrolls (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

essene

(Other definitions for essene that I've seen before include "Ascetic type" , "Old Jewish sectarian" , "Zealot" , "Early Jewish ascetic" , "Ancient Jewish ascetic sect member" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
