Bible Center
What do the word ‘tohuwabohu’ and a rainbow have to do with the Bible? How many languages has the Bible been translated into? Justice, peace, love – that is what the Bible is all about. A replica of the Gutenberg printing press and 2,000 Bibles in more than 500 languages and from six centuries.
Everything about the Book of Books can be discovered in the Bible Center: Bibles in different languages and translations from Hebrew into Greek and Latin, into German and many other languages of the world. From the scroll to the book, from papyrus to parchment to paper to digital media. Many languages and many alphabets. A book of records and an astonishing Bible collection with numerous treasures.
