Museum of the Bible, in partnership with the Israel Antiquities Authority and Running Subway, is presently displaying Dead Sea Scrolls: The Exhibition. The exhibition features biblical texts and scrolls from the community at Qumran, as well as hundreds of artifacts that reveal details about life and Judaism during the Second Temple period. The scrolls also provide unique insights into the formation of the texts that make up our Bibles today, making them a shared heritage for all “People of the Book.”
This display is the largest exhibition of Dead Sea Scrolls outside Israel / Palestine. As a member of the Consortium, the Museum of the Bible will be offering a curated visit of this exhibition on Sunday, January 25, 2026. It will be lead by Dr. Robert Dukes, chief curator at the MOTB, and an expert in the Dead Sea Scrolls. See Bobby Duke’s comment on the scrolls.
The event will take place at the Museum of the Bible, 400 4th Street SW, 6th Floor, Washington, DC 20024. Free street parking available on Sundays.
