π¬π§The Bible Forgers: How Religion, Money, and Power Collide in the Museum of the Bible Scandal
When Faith Meets Forgery: The Shocking Story Behind the Museum of the Bible
Qumran Dead SeaWhat happens when one of the most sacred texts in history becomes a tool for manipulation, profit, and power? The ARTE documentary βThe Bible Forgersβ pulls back the curtain on a scandal that shakes the foundations of trust in religious artifactsβand reveals how easily belief can be weaponized.
- For me, this story hit close to home. As a teenager, I asked my religion teacher why God is depicted as a wise old white man with a white beard, while the devil is black or red. His answer? βBecause thatβs just how it is.β When I pointed out that this was racist, he threw me out of class. That moment taught me a harsh lesson: Questioning dogma is often met with punishment, not answers.
The Museum of the Bible scandal is just a modern, high-stakes version of the same dynamic. Letβs dive into how the Green family, Hobby Lobby, and a web of forgeries exposed the dark side of religious narrative control.
β
The Museum of the Bible: A Monument Built on Lies
Who Are the Greens?
The Green family, owners of the Hobby Lobby craft store empire, are devout conservative Christians with deep pockets and a mission: to promote their interpretation of the Bible as historically infallible. In 2017, they opened the Museum of the Bible in Washington, D.C., a $500 million project designed to showcase the Bibleβs historical accuracy and cultural impact.
To fill the museum with βauthenticβ artifacts, the Greens spent millions acquiring ancient biblical texts, including fragments of the Dead Sea Scrolls. There was just one problem: Many of them were forgeries.
The Forgeries: A Multi-Million-Dollar Deception
Independent experts, including scholars from the French School of Biblical Research and Archaeology in Jerusalem, discovered that thousands of the museumβs artifacts were fake. Hereβs how it happened:
- Fake Dead Sea Scrolls: Forgers created βancientβ fragments using old leather or papyrus, mimicking the script and aging the materials chemically to deceive buyers. Some were sold for up to $10 million [source].
- Illegal Acquisitions: Many genuine artifacts were smuggled out of Israel with fake export permits, violating international law. The Greens later faced legal consequences, including fines and the forced return of looted items.
- Motives: While the Greens claimed their goal was to βshare the Bibleβs storyβ, critics argue they used the museum to push a conservative Christian agendaβone that aligns with their political and social values.
Jean-Michel de Tarragon, an expert in biblical archaeology, noted that while the real Dead Sea Scrolls are invaluable for understanding the Bible in Jesusβ time, the forgeries undermine trust in biblical scholarship and harm the field of archaeology [source].
β
Why This Matters: Religion as a Tool of Control
Historical Precedents
The Museum of the Bible scandal isnβt an isolated incident. Throughout history, religious texts have been altered, censored, or fabricated to serve power structures:
- Canonization and Editing: The Bible as we know it was compiled over centuries, with texts like the Vulgate (Jeromeβs 4th-century Latin translation) omitting or changing βinconvenientβ truths. As one scholar puts it, βMany truths from early Christianity or divine prophets were not included or were falsifiedβ [source].
- Pseudepigraphy: Letters in the New Testament attributed to apostles like Paul were often written by unknown authors to lend them authority. The Pericope Adulterae (the story of the adulteress in John 8) is a well-known later addition not found in the earliest manuscripts [source].
The Psychology of Control
Religionsβand other dogmatic systemsβoften rely on three key tools to maintain control:
- Fear: The threat of divine punishment (hell, damnation) keeps followers in line. As I learned in my religion class, questioning these narratives is often met with hostility.
- Symbolism: Depicting God as a white man and the devil as dark or red isnβt just artistic licenseβitβs a reflection of cultural hierarchies that have justified racism, colonialism, and oppression for centuries.
- Authority: By presenting their interpretation as βthe only truth,β religious leaders (or political figures) suppress dissent. The Greensβ museum is a prime example: They used forgeries to βproveβ their version of history.
β
Personal Reflection: From the Classroom to the Museum
The Evil in humansMy experience with the religion teacher wasnβt just about a racist depiction of Godβit was about the refusal to engage with critical questions. That dynamic is the same one at play in the Museum of the Bible scandal. Whether itβs a 14-year-old student or a multi-million-dollar museum, the response to inconvenient truths is often the same: Silence, expulsion, or deception.
This isnβt just about religion. Itβs about how power operatesβwhether in classrooms, museums, or governments. The lesson? Always question the narrative. Because when you stop asking questions, you become part of the system youβre trying to understand.
β
Conclusion: What the Bible Forgers Teach Us
The Museum of the Bible scandal is more than just a story about fake artifacts and wealthy collectors. Itβs a case study in how narratives are constructed, controlled, and soldβoften at the expense of truth. Hereβs what we can take away:
- Religion is not immune to manipulation. Whether itβs ancient scribes altering texts or modern tycoons buying forgeries, the Bibleβs history is as much about power as it is about faith.
- Symbolism matters. The way God and the devil are depicted isnβt neutralβit reinforces who holds power and who doesnβt.
- Critical thinking is a survival skill. From my religion class to the halls of the Museum of the Bible, the message is clear: Those who control the narrative control the people.
So, whatβs the takeaway? If a museum dedicated to the Bible can be built on lies, what does that say about the stories weβve been toldβand the ones we tell ourselves?

πβ°οΈπ₯ In the caves by the salt sea lay the words of old. Fragments of scripture borne by hands long dust. The Essenes or some other doomed folk set them down and fled before Rome. What was found was little. What was lost was greater still. Ash and papyrus mingled in the dark. #DeadSeaScrolls https://www.biblicalarchaeology.org/daily/biblical-artifacts/dead-sea-scrolls/decayed-papyrus-hints-that-more-dead-sea-scrolls-remain/

Anyone offering opinions on whether AI reconstruction of text from a bunch of statistical weights is a violation of copyright, should first write an essay explaining their thinking in the context of the Dead Sea Scrolls Concordance affair
This has all been argued before in different contexts with different facts, but it has all been argued before:
βWill Marty Abegg Ever Find a Job?β | The BAS Library
Each word in the fragments had its own three-by-five card, noting where it appeared and what the adjacent words were. But the concordance was available only to the eight scholars on the publication team, not to outsiders.
In 1988 copies of this concordance were privately printed from the three-by-five cards for the use of the then-dispersed publication team, and a copy eventually found its way to Hebrew Union College in Cincinnati, Ohio.
With the aid of this concordance, a graduate student named Marty Abegg was able to reconstruct the transcripts. And he eventually allowed his reconstructions to be published by the Biblical Archaeology Society.

π΄ The Earliest Photo of the Man Who Discovered the First Dead Sea Scrolls?
βThis 1953 photo shoot covers both the excavations at Qumran and the early work of sorting the fragments. I was surprised to see a photo of the βtwo shepherdsβ who are said to have been the first to find scrolls standing outside the entrance to Cave 1Q.β

What interests me is the question how, if the DSS/OG reading is original, the shorter MT reading could have appeared. The proposed reconstruction of 4QSam-a's text reads:
ΧΧΧ Χ’Χ¨
[Χ’ΧΧ ΧΧΧΧΧΧΧΧ ΧΧ€Χ Χ ΧΧΧΧ ΧΧΧ©ΧΧ ΧΧΧΧΧ ΧΧͺ ]ΧΧΧΧ [Χ]ΧΧ©Χ¨
[ΧΧ’Χ©Χ ΧΧΧΧΧ ΧΧΧΧΧ ΧΧΧΧΧ ............... ΧΧ]Χ©ΧΧwith a long gap.
But if that's original, how can one explain the shorter reading?
-
Most such explanations can go either way, which is why #TextualCriticism is difficult and often inconclusive.
In this case, one of the #DeadSeaScrolls supports OG over MT (which doesn't solve the issue, since variations occur among DSS).
4QSam-a:
ΧΧ]Χͺ ΧΧΧΧ Χ©ΧΧΧ ΧΧΧ Χ’Χ¨
]ΧΧΧΧ [Χ]ΧΧ©Χ¨
ΧΧ]Χ©ΧΧSo a full line comes between the second-to-last word of 1 Sam. 1:24 and the start of v.25, w/ two words echoing OG.

Today is Abib 15, a High Sabbath. 2000 years ago the Messiah gave up his life to pay for our transgressions. Abib 15-21 is also the Feast of Unleavened Bread.

Today is season "boundary" day. It marks the end & beginning of seasons. This keeps everyone synchronous with nature & the Feasts of YHWH.

To my fellow followers of #HaDerech (#TheWay) and the #Zadokite (#DeadSeaScrolls) calendar.
#Passover #Pesach will be on 2024-04-02 18:00 to 2024-04-03 06:00.
In Scriptural Calendar:
* Evening of 14th = 04-02 18:00; to
* Evening of 15th = 04-03 17:59.Meanwhile, the Feast of #UnleavenedBread #ChagHaMatzot will be from 2024-04-03 to 2024-04-09.
In Scriptural Calendar:
* From the beginning of the day of 15th (sunrise) = 04-03 06:00 to
* the last evening hour of the 21st = 04-10 05:59, right before a new day begins.
* The 1st and 7th days are #HighShabbat days. No work like any other #Shabbat days.Remember, a day (24-hour period) begins at sunrise or 06:00 (for easy reckoning), and ends until the next sunrise or 05:59 (for easy reckoning).
We observe the Feasts of YHWH because he commanded these, not because of rituals men told us to. It is fine if you stick to pure Torah instructions or if you want to add traditions, it is between you and The Most High. Just make sure you are not doing it as a ritual, otherwise, it is legalism. Do it because you want to obey The Most High. It was YHWH who commanded these, not men, and definitely not the Pharisees.
Have an amazing time with YHWH, The Most High!

The reason why armchair (and professional) lawyers who want to argue the Open AI vs: New York Times copyright lawsuit, should look towards the Dead Sea Scrollsβ¦
This is written-up in a bunch[1] of places, but basically: the Dead Sea Scrolls were discovered circa 1946, then excavated, and then hoarded by academics who wanted to only release them piecemeal and slowly, after consideration.
Alas for this plan: to assist researchers who wanted to run statistical analyses of which words were where on what pages, they released a concordance β an index of all of the textsβ¦
[β¦] organized like a dictionary, listing every use of every word that appears in a text, identifying the places where the word is found and also giving the context in which the word is used.
Source: NYT
But what they never bet upon was that someone would take the concordance, feed it into a computer, and use the computer to reconstruct (or: βreverse-engineerβ) a copy of the original text (allowing that there may be errors in the construction of the concordance or in the process of reconstruction) β the reconstruction being subsequently published and thereby effectively forcing the scroll-keepers into actual publication of the originals
Key Questions
Ignoring that the original texts were so old as to not be in copyrightβ¦
- Was the concordance a derivative work of the original texts?
- Was analysis of the concordance in order to reconstruct the original, in keeping with the intention of providing the concordance for analysis? Would this matter?
- Would building an LLM model of all the scrape-able texts on the internet β including, for instance, the Internet Archive copy of the 1991 NYT article re: this matter β be a derivative work of the NYT article, or of the entire Internet? Should we distinguish?
- If someone β for instance a lawyer representing the NYT β prompts a LLM with text that will provoke it to roughly reconstruct (allowing that there may be errors in the construction of the model or in the process of reconstruction) a NYT article, is the result a breach of copyright? Is it a mechanically derived work (the reconstruction) of (perhaps) another derived work (the model)?
These are fun things to think about. Iβm not going to suggest answers, because I am not trying to win an argument one way or another, but I do believe that the future of knowledge-accessability is at stake, here.

#Christian apologist #JoshMcDowell irresponsibly overstates what the Dead Sea Scrolls can tell us about #OldTestament reliability. Dr John Bergsma insists that #JohntheBaptist and several of #Jesus' disciples were part of the #DeadSeaScroll group. Meanwhile, Dr Craig Evans insists that any notion of Jesus parallels are rejected by #scholars and outside the mainstream.
