Thanks for posting this tamrock. Very interesting.
The Bloomberg link that you posted unfortunately seems to be giving me trouble & the video is stuttering.
Here's a better link that makes the story easier to read:

The Codex Sassoon, containing a nearly complete Hebrew Bible, will donated to a museum in Israel.

That is amazing its just 300 years shy of being as old as the oldest Torah scrolls they have in the library of antiquities over in Israel.
Or that is my understanding from a speaking engagement I went to held by someone who was given permission to actually go in and view them.
