Medieval Manuscript Predicts the Present

Isabel sent me a link to this CNN article about a newly discovered one-thousand-year-old manuscript of Psalms found in an Irish bog.

The book was found open to a page describing, in Latin script, Psalm 83, in which God hears complaints of other nations' attempts to wipe out the name of Israel.

They can't turn the page yet because researchers are trying to figure out how to do that without damaging the text.

No impossible, just highly improbable.

Pretty freaky, eh?
