>The Dead Sea Scrolls rewrote the history of the Bible, preserving some of the oldest surviving copies of Scripture ever discovered. First uncovered in desert caves in 1947, the fragile manuscripts revealed biblical texts dating to the centuries before and during the time of Jesus, offering a rare glimpse into how the Bible existed nearly 2,000 years ago. Now, several of those ancient fragments are set to go on display next month at the Museum of the Bible in Washington DC, running through September. A new rotation will feature rare texts, including portions of Isaiah, replacing fragments from Psalms, Numbers and Lamentations that were previously on display.
