The find is thus a milestone, according to the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. The cave was looted long before the archeologists excavated it, but inside they found telltale signs that scrolls had been there: broken storage jars and lids on its edges and in a tunnel in the back.

There was the story of a young Irish vicar riding his bicycle down the path between towns where he would meet an elderly priest from another parish, and they would discuss matters daily, until one day the old priest noticed the vicar walking instead of riding and asked him “What happened to your bicycle?”

The vicar explained that the bike was stolen.

“Well, then”, the old priest said, “Next Sunday, do a sermon about the ten commandments and preach heavily on THOU SHALL NOT STEAL. Then you will surely get your bike back”. The vicar agreed and went off.

The next week, The two met again and this time the vicar was again riding his bicycle. “See what I meant!” the Old Priest said. “The power of the Word. The Ten Commandments, and Thou Shall not steal!”

The vicar responded, “Well, not exactly, Father. I was preaching about the Ten Commandments, and I was all ready to preach heavy on ‘Thou Shall Not Steal’, but when I got to ‘Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery, all of a sudden I remembered where me bike was!”

Thanks, did I write that - wow!


I can see the CNN translation:

“...and whereforth shall emerge a big man with orange hair, who delights his followers by sending white birds off to sing his message, rather than passing it on to the tribal elders to disseminate amongst the unwashed masses...”
