Museum’s Dead Sea Scrolls All Forgeries

The Museum of the Bible (pet project of the owners of Hobby Lobby, who were previously found guilty of buying looted Iraqi artifacts from ISIS) has once again been in the news. The museum’s prized collection of Dead Sea Scroll fragments have been found to be fakes by a team of art fraud investigators. Potentially made from old shoe leather, too!

The items were purchased from a larger set that appeared on the market in 2002, more than 50 years after the genuine Israelite artifacts were found in a cave in the West Bank.
