Museum of the Bible's forged Dead Sea Scroll fragments
- What exactly are the Dead Sea Scrolls?
The hosts discuss the news that the Museum of the Bible in Washington DC says five of its Dead Sea Scroll fragments are fake and will no longer be displayed. They explain what the Dead Sea Scrolls are, how they validate the Masoretic text, how forgers write on ancient scraps, and the Green family's $500 million museum, then note the forgeries do not change the textual evidence and check that admission is donation-suggested.
