A dramatic exhibition of authentic Dead Sea Scroll fragments, manuscripts and rare Bibles gathered from around the world to tell the story of the most printed book in history—the Bible in English.
Ink & Blood: Dead Sea Scrolls to the English Bible is a traveling museum exhibition chronicling 5000 years of history from the very origins of writing in ancient Sumer through the first English Bible printed on American soil . The story is told with more than 120 artifacts including authentic fragments of the Dead Sea Scrolls documenting every major development in the Bible. Visitors would have to travel the world to see ancient artifacts and early Bibles similar to those in the collection coming to Lexington this summer.
