Photos of The Israel Museum, Jerusalem

The Israel Museum is a very important building in the modern new city of Jerusalem. Its appearance is like a huge white porcelain jar lid. The treasures displayed in the museum are mostly Bibles of different styles from different eras, including the relatively old and complete version of the prophet Isaiah, so it can also be called a Bible museum. There are also precious Dead Sea Scrolls. In 1947, an Arab teenager who lived near the Dead Sea entered a cave in a desolate canyon in search of missing sheep and found a Hebrew parchment scroll in a clay pot. . These handwritten Bibles can be traced back to two thousand years ago, and they are the earliest Bible manuscripts discovered by human beings.
