ONE of the oldest copies of the Bible, which has been scattered around the globe for more than a century, will be put online today.
The Codex Sinaiticus will be available as a complete book for the first time since it was unearthed at a monastery in Egypt in 1844, thanks to a £1 million project.

The British Library has digitally reconnected the manuscript, which has been housed in libraries in the UK, Russia, Egypt and Germany.

Apparently the first page reads something like this:

All characters in this book are fictitious and bear no resemblance to any persons alive or dead.
