Company Creates Fingernail-Sized Nano Bible



Nano Bible? Well, why not? We live in the 21st century in the so called Digital Age where almost everything is possible!

Thanks to the Jerusalem Nano Bible company now you can refresh your memory on the New Testament while you’re on the go. The size of the book is so small that it can fit not only in your pocket but on your fingernail too.

A tiny version of part of the sacred texts can be worn around the neck or even embedded inside a watch. And yes, you’ll need a microscope to read it as it measures less than 5mm across.
On just one face of the square chip, 27 books of the New Testament have been printed. The tiny biblical text uses the Greek version of the New Testament, Textus Receptus, or ‘received text’ in Latin.


The tiny bible can be used in jewellery (necklace shown), embedded in watches or any number of other ‘infinite possiblites’

Each chip is made from a silicon wafer, with their sides measuring a minuscule 4.76mm. On the chips, each letter has a width of about 0.18 microns (18 millionths of a metre), so a 20.3cm wafer can apparently contain more than 1,000 Bibles.

Now the Jerusalem Nano Bible company is seeking validation from the Guinness World Records that it is indeed the world’s smallest Bible. In the future the company is also planning to produce a nano-sized Old Testament.
