A copy of the Book of Lamentations from the Dead Sea Scrolls collection will be put on display at the Bible Lands Museum for the first time. The display will only be up until the end of Tisha B'Av, on Sunday evening.
The scroll is kept under extremely careful supervision. Even while it is on display, it will be carefully monitored and guarded.
Lamentations deals with the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem, the same event that is commemorated each year on Tisha B'Av.
