The smallest nano Bible in the world launched
The Israeli company has worked with TowerJazz Semiconductor to develop the nanotechnology to allow the Bible content to be printed on a silicon chip measuring only 5mm x 5mm.
World's first "nano Bible" printed on a chip is so small it can be worn as jewellery.
TowerJazz has given its product a suitable marketing tagline: “Give the gift of faith – the smallest Bible ever printed on one surface.” Even though it is small, this Jerusalem Nano Bible has every letter and punctuation mark present in New Testament or Old Hebrew Bible. The company aims to make this wearable Bible both accessible and affordable. It also wants to make its product a practical one. The Jerusalem Nano Bible was the brainchild of the Israeli entrepreneur, Ami Bentov, who partnered with TowerJazz to create the final product.
Bentov got the idea during one of his stints as combat video journalist when he was sent to cover terror attacks and wars. His intention was to make a positive change in the world. He wanted to bequeath some good thing not only for his kids, but also for the coming generations. Bentov's idea germinated when he observed the use of nanotechnology in media production. He realized that he could use the same technology which is used in the manufacture of computers and cellphones into something that will enable people to come together. They will not only come closer to each other, but also to their faith.
The Old Testament contains all the 24 books of Hebrew Bible. It is written in original Hebrew script. The New Testament is covered fully, and written in Greek. For anglophones, an English language version will come soon.
The small size means that this Bible can be read only with the help of an electron microscope. The microscope employs an electron beam to magnify the objects a thousandfold.
The price of the unadorned Nano Bible comes to $25 and lapel pins are sold at $40.
