Silicon-Chip Tanak Goes to Pope

Posted on by Brooke

The world’s smallest Hebrew Bible will be given to Pope Benedict XVI by Israeli President Shimon Perez.

I had reported earlier on the Hebrew Bible, which is etched onto the gold face of a silicon chip that is one half of a millimeter square.

The news came as a surprise to elementary Hebrew students worldwide, who had assumed that their 5.5"×7.5" BHS already used the most miniscule type modern science could produce.
