The Dead Sea Scrolls Exhibit
Philadelphia - September 2012 Previous Index Next

People from ancient biblical times weren't dunces. They were quite capable crafting very intricate art on metal like on the coin seen here. There was even a much smaller piece of jewelry -- like an earing fashioned from thread-thin bronze wires I think -- that had highly elaborate craftsmanship and too small to take a good picture of at the exhibit. So if you still have doubts about the stories of Abraham, Moses, Isaiah, etc., and their encounters with God, after seeing the artifacts at the Dead Sea Scrolls exhibit, I'd say you can rest assured knowing that the ancient peoples of biblical times possessed intelligence not much different from yours and mine and that could easily tell myth from fact.
