The Ten Commandments fragment was found in the famous Cave 4 not far from the Qumran ruins in the Judean Desert of the West Bank, where the scrolls had rested, undisturbed and preserved for two millennia, in darkness and dry desert air. After the discovery, all sorts of crazy things happened to the scrolls.

The manuscript is on rare display at Israel's national museum in an exhibit of objects from pivotal moments in the history of civilization. (Dan Balilty/AP) Penned on parchment by an unknown scribe more than 2,000 years ago, the scroll fragment is one of humanity’s most precious documents — and so fragile that its custodians rarely permit it to be moved from the secure vault where it rests in complete darkness. But for 14 days over the next seven months, the Ten Commandments scroll, known to scholars as 4Q41, will make a rare public appearance at the Israel Museum as part of a new exhibit called “A Brief History of Humankind,” a show based on the international best-selling book by Israeli polymath Yuval Noah Harari. The exhibit chronicles humanity’s narrative arc by pairing cutting-edge modern art from the museum’s extensive collection alongside the display of 14 artifacts: the earliest-dated stone tools; the earliest evidence of man-made fire; the earliest known evidence of a family burial; the world’s oldest complete sickle — plus the Ten Commandments. It ends with Albert Einstein’s handwritten 1912 manuscript for the Special Theory of Relativity, including the formula E=mc 2 . Even if you consider a couple of the commandments — maybe the ones about coveting? — as more suggestions than rules, seeing the scroll provides a major wow, taking us as far back as we can get to Moses the lawgiver, who faith and tradition say brought God’s orders down from Mount Sinai to his people. Albert Einstein’s handwritten 1912 manuscript for the Special Theory of Relativity is on display as well. (Israel Museum)

Learn More »The scrolls were discovered in a series of caves in the late 1940s and early 1950s by Bedouin shepherds. The Ten Commandments fragment was found in the famous Cave 4 not far from the Qumran ruins in the Judean Desert of the West Bank, where the scrolls had rested, undisturbed and preserved for two millennia, in darkness and dry desert air. After the discovery, all sorts of crazy things happened to the scrolls. With enough twists and turns for an Indiana Jones sequel, they were lost and recovered, hoarded by secretive scholars, the subject of academic feuds, lawsuits and conspiracy theories and, very sadly, woefully mishandled. The delicate bits were flattened under glass panes in rooms without climate or humidity control. As hard as it is to believe today, some of the fragments were taped together soon after their discovery, as researchers tried to piece the puzzle of the fragments back together. The conservators are still working to ever-so gently remove bits of yellowed, sticky cellophane. The world’s oldest complete sickle is also part of the Israel Museum’s exhibit. (Israel Museum) The curators at the Israel Antiquities Authority, which maintains labs at the Israel Museum, allowed a Washington Post correspondent a glimpse at how the scrolls are stored, protected and handled today. The ground rules were simple: Look, but do not even think of touching. If you could stop sweating and breathing (which creates subtle changes in temperature and humidity), probably better. And no photographs, and never tell a soul where the scrolls are stored, except to say, “deep in the bowels of the Israel Museum.” The Ten Commandments fragment measures about 14 by 4 inches, and when it is not being readied for display it is sleeping between pieces of delicate tissue paper and acid-free cardboard in a simple archival box on a shelf in a secure vault that maintains “very strict” conditions — a rock-steady temperature of 68 degrees and 48 percent humidity in complete darkness. Israeli curators have decided it can be exposed to the light of a museum display case no more two weeks every five years. In all, the Dead Sea Scrolls contain some 900 manuscripts composed of a few complete scrolls and tens of thousands of fragments. The works include books of the Old Testament or Hebrew Bible, as well as texts of particular significance to Catholics [such as the Book of Tobit and the Wisdom of Sirach], as well as commentaries, hymns, prayers and mystical formulas.
