    Really… this can’t get any more strange than this! Dr. Farrell some time ago mentioned people stealing antiquities from Iraq… looks like Hobby Lobby the chain craft and hobby store to pay $3 million dollars for receiving stolen property… Museum relics from Iraq… You can’t make this stuff up!

    • LOL Frank @ Really !! .. I know .. it just gets weirder by the minute ..
      Great find and thanks for sharing ..

    • Their stores are closed on Sundays—- so their employees can attend church.

    • Hang on a second. these guys are making my b*llsh*t-o-meter go ting a ling…

      “In 2009, the Green family purchased its first biblical artifact and has since acquired tens of thousands of items which now comprise the Green Collection, and is on loan to Museum of the Bible. Museum of the Bible is scheduled to open in 2017 in Washington, D.C., three blocks from the U.S. Capitol. Steve devotes a significant amount of his time to supporting this endeavor and its related projects, including the Museum of the Bible Scholars Initiative, education, traveling exhibits and research”

      This interview with the current CEO..

      Steve Green

      Quote :
      ” Hobby Lobby and its affiliates employ 28,000 people, have combined sales of $3.3 billion, and operate retail craft stores at more than 600 locations.”

      “reen and his family have spent the last five years gathering what is now one of the world’s largest collections of Biblical artifacts, featuring 40,000 antiquities—everything from one of the largest private collections of Dead Sea scrolls, to Torahs that survived the Holocaust, to Elvis Presley’s personal copy of the Good Book. ”

    • Plundering national treasures for your own personal collection Mr Green?
      I think so. This situation stinks to high heaven.. and they really really love their Bible Museum project.. I get shivers down my spine now whenever I hear rich people being called philanthropists.. In my experience.. it usually means that they are hiding something behind the shining light of philanthropy..

      • And its in DC.. and I dont like the idea of museums in DC.. near politiciens.. who can hide behind the veneer of going to look at Bibles in the bible museum to explain why they’re missing for 4 hours in a killroom..

      • I say ” Let’s defrock him .. Off with his frock .. He’s a frocking thief .. We want Mr. Greens frock on a frocking platter” ..

    • There is the work by Heather Lynn revealing (or confirming) German billionaire’s interest in Mesopotamian items:

    • 100 years ago Friedrich Delitzsch and his “Babel und Bibel” shocked the European world when he showed that Sumerians predated Biblical Yahwehism. Not sure how or if the “Christian” Mr Green is dealing with this and what this has to do with smuggling and hoarding cuneiform tablets…

      • Depends… Im looking through Genes, Giants, Monsters.. (since this am)..
        Depends if he’s protestant catholic or not.. I find it straaaaaange.. that the head of the Lutheran Church or Summus Episcopus was assassinated by a “comes out of nowhere.. teenage boy” 9 years after hearing Friedrich Delitzsch saying ‘quoting from book (thnx Doc)
        hat is the object of these labours in distant,
        inhospitable, and dangerous lands? To what end this
        costly work of rummaging in mounds many thousand
        years old, of digging deep down into the earth in
        places where no gold or silver is to be found?
        Why this
        rivalry among nations for the purpose of securing,
        each for itself, these desolate hills — and the more
        the better — in which to excavate?
        And from what
        source, on the other hand, is derived the self-
        sacrificing interest, ever on the increase, that is shewn
        on both sides of the ocean, in the excavations in
        Babylonia and Assyria?
        To either question there is one answer, which, if not
        exhaustive, nevertheless to a great extent tells us the
        cause and aim: it is the Bible”

        Then big powers that be slammed each other around Europe for 4 years on an industrial scale… I talk with a guy from Hungary pretty often.. It appears Hungary didnt get to heal from those scars before communism came in.

        • so the answer will be.. Is he seaching himself for information that motivated and sent countries to war??? Or is he actively trying to suppress information..

      • quoting again from Genes, Giants…
        “More importantly, it was the stated goal of Adam
        Weishaupt and his Illuminati “to acquire the direction of
        education — of church management — of the professorial
        chair, and of the pulpit” and to “gain over the reviewers and
        journalists” in order to spread Illuminist opinions, and thus it
        would seem highly likely that biblical studies would have
        been a principal target for this agenda.”

        Sound familier??

    • This wealthy chain-store owner may just be an agent for somebody else, exploited for his Biblical obsessions by others who know more. In the meantime, he has had the tablets in his possession for 7 years – the theft was in 2010 – time to photograph them and maybe have some translated.
