The Museum of the Bible will soon host fragments of the Dead Sea Scrolls and other ancient artifacts in Washington, D.C.
In partnership with the Israel Antiquities Authority, the museum will display “biblical texts and scrolls from the community at Qumran,” including three rotations of pieces from the Dead Sea Scrolls, according to the website for the Museum of the Bible.
Most of the texts composing the Dead Sea Scrolls were created between 150 BC and AD 70, making them some of the oldest copies of the Bible and other literature from the Second Temple period ever discovered.
