I spent alot more time at this museum than I expected, there really was a lot to see. I normally hate audio tours, but I used it this time, because I am seriously ignorant when it comes to ancient Jewish history, and this filled me in on the basics.

I have to admit, one of the most enjoyable parts of the museum was overhearding a conversation between a father and his sons about the museum. The son thought that the museum’s claim that Jewish thought is heavily focussed on constant questioning and interpretation was contradictory, while his father’s response was, stop asking questions and appreciate the very old things. Clearly, questioning and interpretation was not of importance to the father who had dragged the sons to the exhibition :P
