1300 YEAR OLD HEBREW MANUSCRIPTS REUNITED!!!
After centuries apart, two 1,300 year old pieces of Hebrew biblical manuscript have been reunited! While one part of the manuscript was on display in Jerusalem in 2007, two Israel paleographers noticed it bared resemblance to another page that belonged to a private collector in New York. Upon careful examination, it was determined that the two pieces did indeed match and together, made up the text of the Song of the Sea, an ancient song sung by Israelis. This is a fascinating discovery which helps illustrate a part of history that is still very unknown.
