  • DEAD SEA SCROLLS: LIFE and FAITH in BIBLICAL TIMES at Discovery Times Square, New York City
    DEAD SEA SCROLLS: LIFE AND FAITH IN BIBLICAL TIMES At Discovery Times Square, New York City (A Christian Perspective) Gordon Franz Introduction The fantastic Dead Sea Scrolls: Life and Faith in Biblical Times exhibition at the Discovery Times Square building in New York City is about more than just the Dead Sea Scrolls; it is about daily life in the Biblical world. The subtitle – “Life and Faith in Biblical Times” – says it all. The exhibition runs until April 15, 2012, in New York City, and then, in May 2012, it will be at the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia, where it will run for another five months. The Bible is more than just another book with black (and sometimes red) letters on a page. The Bible is about real people, in real places, experiencing real events in history. Sometimes, because of our twenty-first century Western mindset and experiences, it is difficult to imagine how people lived in Biblical times. For example, the LORD metaphorically searched Jerusalem with lamps (Zeph. 1:12). When we think of a lamp, we think of a stand with a shade and a socket with an electric light bulb that illuminates when a switch is flipped. In the Biblical world there was no electricity, only olive oil and a wick to light the oil lamp. This exhibition will give you an idea of what those lamps actually looked like. Through the exhibition you will get a glimpse into the material culture of the Biblical world and add a third dimension to your Bible study! You will also be able to experience “Oh, now I see [literally] what the Bible is talking about” moments! As an archaeologist and a Bible teacher, I was fascinated by the whole exhibition, which is on loan from the Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA).

The Installation ceremony began with a procession of the institution’s scholars, curators and scientists, representing not only the more than 6,000 staff who dedicate themselves to the Smithsonian’s mission today, but also the many thousands more who have advanced the fields of history, art and science since the institution’s founding in 1846. In 2015 alone we welcomed hundreds of thousands of people to the newly renovated Renwick Gallery (p. 6), our scientists peered to the edge of the black hole at the center of the Milky Way (p. 18) and our anthropologists helped identify the remains of leaders of the Jamestown colony (p. 28). The theme of this year’s annual report is “Now+Next” because the work we do today leads to the innovations of tomorrow. Thanks to the support of many generous private donations, Congress and the American people, we will continue to increase our understanding of the world, and to share that understanding with you.
