The ancient manuscripts known as the Dead Sea Scrolls remain one of the most important archaeological discoveries of the modern era. In this episode of Crosswalk Talk, Bobby Duke, Chief Curatorial Officer at the Museum of the Bible, discusses the museum’s remarkable new exhibit showcasing fragments of these ancient texts.
Dr. Duke explains why the scrolls—some dating back more than 2,000 years—have strengthened confidence in the reliability of the biblical text. He also offers a behind-the-scenes look at the traveling exhibit organized by the Israel Antiquities Authority and highlights other fascinating artifacts visitors can experience at the museum.
