President Rivlin escorts the Scrolls to the Shrine of the Book

THEY BELONG IN A MUSEUM! President Rivlin accompanies the return of the Dead Sea Scrolls to the Shrine of the Book at the Israel Museum. President Rivlin: At times like this we thirst for the works of art and archeology at this special museum, and we have a responsibility to our cultural institutions which are the spiritual foundations of the Jewish and democratic State of Israel (Israel Ministry of Foreign Affairs).

It is good to see the Scroll out of their strong-room and back on display.
