The new
Museum of the Bible in the U.S. capital of Washington D.C. is now open!! The
museum is located three blocks from the U.S. Capitol building at 400 4th St.
SW. At this new Bible museum, they are dedicated to talking about the History,
Narrative, and Impact of the Bible. Their amazing exhibits at this museum are:
·
A
reconstruction of an ancient city in the valley of Elah where David fought
Goliath.
·
Manuscripts
talking about the Christmas story from the fifteenth century
·
John
Newton's Amazing Grace exhibit talks about how this song impacted people's
lives
·

·
The
World of Jesus of Nazareth which talks about the world during Jesus' ministry
·
The
Bible through American History
The Museum
of the Bible is eight stories tall and has 430,000 square feet of space, which
makes it the world largest Bible museum. The Bible artifacts and texts at the museum
are from the Green's (the family who owns the Hobby Lobby stores) collection. This
new museum opened its doors on November 17th 2017, after seven years of working
on the plans for the museum. The reason why they opened this museum was to
teach people about the importance of God's word, the Bible. They have a program
called the One Million Names for people who have donated to the museum. If you
donate to the museum, they will display your name on the museum wall to honor
your decision. I hope that you enjoyed looking at my post and that you can visit
the museum soon!!
