The Museum of Biblical Art, located in New York, is getting increased attention and respect. It might seem unlikely, but the rich tradition of Bible-inspired art and music make for a fine thematic museum of collections and special events. The latest is "On Eagles' Wings: The King James Bible Turns 400."
Only 400? It seems as though the KJV is as rooted in our very language and mental imagery as anything could be. Regardless of your religion or lack of it, an educated person has to know the KJV.
What MOBIA, the new museum, does is enable people to think of their culture in new ways--based on the old.
