The Israel Museum is Israel's largest encyclopedic museum. One can easily get lost there for hours. I know your time is limited and precious when visiting Jerusalem so I've crafted a tour in the museum that hits all the 'must see' exhibits. All the findings and references your guides will be talking about while traveling through Israel are here, on display. Through the exhibit we will rediscover the Biblical narrative in the context of the material culture and lives in the Land and surrounding territories. Some burning questions will be answered, the Bible will come alive. A story you know so well, like you've never heard it before.

    The most important archaeological finding of our time - The Dead Sea Scrolls - are on display here in 'The Shrine of the Book'. The miraculous story of the finding of the scrolls, the material objects found in the excavations and, finally, the scrolls themselves, 2000 and 2200 year old copies of Biblical scripture including a facsimile of the entire book of Isaiah. All house in a beautiful and unique architecture of the Shrine of the Book.
