Back from summer break

I've been an incredibly bad blogger recently. So much to write about, from Iran to this incredible summer. But that will have to wait a little bit.
I wanted to let you know about the Codex Sinaiticus, which is billed as the oldest Bible in the world. This doesn't mean that it's the oldest Bible ever written, but that it is the oldest one we know of.
Handwritten more than 1,600 years ago, it contains the Christian Bible in Greek. The work is named after the Monastery of St. Catherine, Mount Sinai, where it was preserved. Four institutions own parts of the Bible because parts were taken to be distributed at various points in its history. These institutions, the above-mentioned St. Catherine's Monastery, the British Library, the Leipzig University Library in Germany and the National Library of Russia in St. Petersburg.
Read for yourself about the history of this Bible and how it has come to be conserved.
