Biblical Arts Center in Dallas has a new exhibit starting 5
September. I hope to make a trip out there so I can get a
first hand look at some of the illumination work - anyone up for a group
trip? The tickets are somewhat pricey but I think it might be worth a
trip. :) </FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<P>The Dead Sea Scroll fragments are just one part of an extraordinary
display of rare ancient Biblical manuscripts and historic Bibles coming to
Dallas on September 5th. This one-of-a-kind exhibit, known officially as
Dead Sea Scrolls to the Forbidden Book, contains fragments from the Dead
Sea Scrolls, including portions of Genesis and Isaiah, and numerous Bibles
including a manuscript Wyclif Bible from the 15th Century, the first
translation of the Holy Book into English. </P>
<P>Other rare items include several 5,000-year-old pictographic clay
tablets from ancient Mesopotamia, the earliest form of writing in history,
and a 2,600-year-old scroll containing the oldest known Hebrew writing and
the earliest known written example of the Hebrew name for God, Elohim.</P>
<P>This awe-inspiring collection of artifacts, manuscripts, and Bibles
from around the world comes together for a first-time exhibit to tell a
unique story seldom told—the complete history of the Bible, focusing on
the Bible in English. “Intriguing, educational, moving . . .” are just a
few words that best describe this exhibit, says Dr. William Noah, Dead Sea
Scrolls to the Forbidden Book
Curator</P></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></SPAN></DIV></BODY></HTML>
