Liberty Biblical Museum

The Liberty Biblical Museum gives faculty, students, and visitors a window into the world of the Bible. Through an exhibition of ancient artifacts from the Holy Land, rare Bibles, and manuscripts, the ancient culture of the Bible is traced from 3,000 B.C. to the 6th century A.D. Special exhibits include the Dead Sea Scrolls, the Jewish Temple, the Authentic Last Supper, and Daily Life in the Bible. The educational goal of the museum is to support the historicity and reliability of the Bible through the first-hand experience with these ancient testimonies to modern truth. We recommend calling before you plan your visit to make sure someone will be at the museum.

Thank you for taking the time to talk, to share about your life and work, and to tour us through the Liberty israel Biblical Museum. It was very enlightening. The Museum is a must stop for any visitor to Liberty University, and should be part of the required curriculum for incoming freshman.  It is excellent.” – Daniel, Sept., 2018 “Your museum is such a wonderful resource for our students. Shalom!” – Jillian Ross, Ph.D. “As a student, it is amazing to attend a school where biblical history is valued and where much effort is put into preserving the things of the past. I think every student should visit the (Biblical) Museum to admire, appreciate, and absorb the amazing artifacts and writings of the past!” – Spring 2016
