Oldest Bible

The Codex Sinaiticus is a Greek manuscript of the Bible written in the fourth century. This manuscript has for many years been in fragments, but as a part of a collaborative project between the British Library, Leipzig University Library in Germany, the Monastery of St. Catherine in Mount Sinai, Egypt, and the National Library of Russia in St. Petersburg these fragments are being put together to make a complete manuscript. This manuscript will be available for everyone to read.
