The Israel Museum presents “Consolation from the Desert: The Complete Isaiah Scroll,” a rare historical exhibition featuring the oldest and most complete biblical manuscript ever discovered.

Measuring 7.17 meters in length, the Isaiah Scroll is one of the most significant finds among the Dead Sea Scrolls. Preserved in exceptional condition, it offers an unparalleled insight into the biblical text and its transmission over more than two millennia.

On display for a limited four-month period, the exhibition offers visitors a unique opportunity to see this extraordinary artifact up close. The presentation combines historical context, scholarly interpretation, and careful conservation display, making it a major cultural highlight for both international visitors and local audiences.

This exhibition is expected to attract wide interest from scholars, history enthusiasts, and museum visitors seeking a deeper understanding of ancient biblical heritage.
