Museum of Biblical Countries

The Museum of Biblical Countries is a popular Israeli museum exploring the culture of the peoples mentioned in the Holy Scriptures: ancient Egyptians, Hittites, Persians, Phoenicians and many others.

The museum is located in Jerusalem, in the Givat Ram district.

The Museum of Biblical Countries was founded by the famous archaeologist Eli Borowski in 1992, and most of the exhibition consists of exhibits from the personal collection of this scientist. The museum presents many ancient artifacts of the biblical era - ancient documents, weapons, coins, dishes, idols, various statues and religious objects. Also, miniature models of ancient cities and individual buildings are demonstrated here - buildings of the historical center of Jerusalem, Egyptian pyramids, Sumerian ziggurats and much more. Of course, each object is accompanied by a detailed annotation and a lot of quotes from the Bible, where a particular exhibit is mentioned.

A visit to the Museum of Biblical Countries is guaranteed to bring a sea of pleasure to anyone interested in the history of the Middle East and the culture of biblical peoples. The exposition is very extensive, and you can spend many hours in the museum, examining the artifacts of ancient civilizations.
