The Samaritan Bible

Biblical scrolls

The Samaritans have the smallest Bible in the modern world-- only five books (the Pentateuch). They still exist as a small religious community on the West Bank in Israel.

There are some differences in content between the Samaritan and Jewish Pentateuch.


The Pentateuch

  • Genesis
  • Exodus
  • Leviticus
  • Numbers
  • Deuteronomy
