This morning we awoke with a special treat waiting for us on Deck 6. A sampling of one of the largest personal collections of early Biblical manuscripts and artifacts. We were in awe!! Many of the manuscripts were printed on animal skins some writing were carved in stone from the time of Abraham...
A cuneiform tablet dated from the time of Abraham....
A sampling of Genesis from the Dead Sea Scrolls...
This is one of the earliest copies of the KJV 1611 Bible.
A 17C manuscript from Ethiopia
A 13C Ethiopia Gospel.
A 15C Torah scroll from North Africa.
An original page from the 5th earliest Bible in the world.
A sampling of all the scrolls, pages and cuneiform that were brought.
For me this was the best to see...
the earliest page of the 23 Psalm!
