Summary

This is the 5th and final interview of this series on the current Dead Sea Scrolls exhibit at the Museum of the Bible. It features Risa Levitt, one of the curators of this traveling exhibit. She is also Executive Director at the Bible Lands Museum in Jerusalem. I thought it would be interesting to find out what this exhibit looks like from one of its creators. What goes in to putting this exhibit together and what are the goals for the exhibit. It turns out that this is a unique presentation and provides elements that can only be seen in Washington DC, not even back in Israel. By all means, see it if you can.
