About This Item

Ecco., 2016. Hardcover. Very Good. Lost Book of Moses: The Hunt for the World's Oldest Bible by Chanan Tigay (ISBN: 9780062206411): In "Lost Book of Moses," Chanan Tigay embarks on a captivating journey to unravel the mystery surrounding the Shapira Affair, one of the most intriguing episodes in the history of biblical scholarship. The book delves into the discovery of what was believed to be the world's oldest Bible and its subsequent disappearance, raising questions about its authenticity and the motives of its discoverer, Moses Wilhelm Shapira. Tigay's meticulous research takes readers on a quest through archives, museums, and historical records as he seeks to uncover the truth behind this enigmatic artifact. Along the way, he sheds light on the complex interplay between faith, history, and the relentless pursuit of knowledge. "Lost Book of Moses" is a riveting exploration of the enduring fascination with biblical history and the lengths to which people will go in the pursuit of ancient treasures. Crisp, clean, unread book with some shelfwear/edgewear. May have remainder marks, often with a black dot or similar mark, to the top or bottom edge of the book.
