A beautiful interactive resource to explore six different sacred texts that have been animated using images from the British Library's collection. A second interactive resource investigates the Abrahamic scriptures by posing a range of questions to a panel of 'experts' in relation to the Jewish and Christian Bibles and the Qur'an. *Requires Flash*
