Location:
Paducah, Kentucky
Synopsis:
The next stop in the journey takes Matt and Tiffany to a traveling Bible exhibit
held in Paducah, KY.
The curator makes an argument for the fidelity
of the Bible by showing Matt and Tiffany thousands of
years of Biblical preservation
and inerrancy. The two of them peer through various glass cabinets, examining
numerous ancient Hebrew texts—some of which date back thousands of
years—as well as more recent English translations of the Bible.
At
the center of the exhibit are pieces of the Dead Sea Scrolls, the great
archaeological discovery of all time, which affirm both
the Old Testament and the Jewish
Tanak.

BIBLE — A
collection of ancient books considered sacred by
Christians and Jews today. The Hebrew Bible (what
Christians call the “Old Testament”)
contains 39 books, whereas the New Testament (written
in Greek) contains 27 books. The Bible for Christians
generally has both Old and New Testaments. The
traditional view of Scripture, which is held by
many today, is that it is a revelation of God.
That is, it contains truth that is meant to instruct
on moral issues, as well as meant to recall accurately
God’s encounters with man. Jesus had a high
view of Scripture; He considered them as having
come “from the mouth of God.” Matthew
4:4.
MOSES — The traditional author of the
Biblical book of Genesis. The rest of the Bible,
as well
as the words of Jesus, support this position.
