Ancient Scrolls in the Aramaic Text - from our story 'The Ancient Samaritans Of Israel: From Mount Gerizim To The Ukraine'

Samaritan High Priest Amran Ishak, center, and two unidentified Samaritan priests stand behind their scrolls of the Torah, or first five books of the Bible, on May 29, 1960. The Samaritans say the scroll on the right is 3,625 years old, written only 30 years after the death of Moses. These scrolls are handwritten in the primitive Hebrew alphabet. The Samaritan community live around their ancient temple site of Mount Gerizim in Nablus, Jordan. (AP Photo/Harry Koundakjian) Ref #: PA.8631254 Date: 29/05/1960
