Hebrew Bible manuscripts

The world's oldest book in a private collection, and one of the earliest books in existence, sold at auction in London on June 11 for more than £3 million.

The Crosby-Schoyen Codex was previously owned by the Norwegian businessman and rare book collector Martin Schoyen, and contains the earliest complete copies of two texts from the Bible, the book of Jonah and Peter's first epistle.

A Hebrew Bible more than 1,000 years old sold for $38.1 million in New York on May17, setting a record for the most valuable manuscript ever sold at auction.

One of the oldest surviving biblical manuscripts, a nearly complete 1,100-year-old Hebrew Bible, could soon be yours, for a cool $30 million.

The manuscript was acquired by the Museum of the Bible in 2011
