When Washington DC's $US500 million Museum of the Bible held its grand opening in November 2017, attended by Vice-President Mike Pence, there were questions even then about the authenticity of its centrepiece collection of Dead Sea Scrolls. Now the museum has been forced to admit a painful truth: technical analysis by a team of German scholars has revealed that at least five of the museum's 16 scroll fragments are apparent forgeries. The announcement has serious implications not only for the Bible Museum, but for other evangelical Christian individuals and institutions who paid top dollar for what now seems to be a massive case of archaeological fraud.

Note the museum is forced to admit. Nothing voluntary here.
