Nikolas Sarris, a 30-year-old doctoral student, has discovered an additional fragment of the world’s oldest Bible in the binding of an eighteenth-century book at St. Catherine’s Monastery at Mount Sinai. The bulk of the Codex Sinaiticus, which dates from A.D. 350, was discovered at the monastery in the nineteenth century.
