The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that someone took and sowed in his field; it is the smallest of all the seeds... (Matthew 13:31).So, after the Jews reclaimed part of Palestine, within a few years much of Israel was green. Beyond Israel was still a desert. And you could see the border from space.
What are those evil Israelis doing now?
They're manufacturing a leather-bound Bible, containing 1.2 million words, the size of a pinhead.
The fiends.
You can pick it up and put it down anytime. Just don't sneeze.
I like the Psalms myself. Pass me the electron microscope.
But it's a testament to the human spirit and its devotion to God. It's amazing what you can do when you're not spending 95% of your time throwing rocks, constructing bombs or, you know, complaining.
God sees all. I cannot believe he doesn't love this.
From the BBC:
A copy of the Hebrew Bible the size of a pinhead has gone on display at the Israel Museum in Jerusalem.
The so-called Nano Bible is the smallest version in the world.
It consists of over 1.2 million letters carved on a gold-plated silicon chip by engineers using an ion beam.
The "book" is being exhibited as part of events marking the Museum's 50th anniversary.
The hi-tech creation is being housed in the museum's Shrine of the Book, home to the Dead Sea Scrolls - the oldest copies of Biblical texts ever found.
Dr Adolfo Roitman, curator at the Shrine of the Book, spoke to BBC News about how the microscopic Bible was created.
