New York: Orthodox Bible Museum closes its doors

Bible Museum, living Torah, in Borough Park, has announced the closing of its doors due to lack of resources.

Museum presented relating Bible era and the commandments of the Torah. Among the exhibits are stuffed animals, collected from around the world.

The museum founder, Rabbi Shaul Shimon Deutsch, told the New York Post that he estimates his collection of animals in the amount of a million and a half dollars, mostly donated but the museum also purchased a animal such as an elephant purchased in the amount of forty thousand dollars.

The museum served as a pilgrimage site for the children of Talmud Torah schools throughout New York City.

The museum recently encountered severe financial difficulties forcing the owner to sell it.

"The museum is located in a residential home in Borough Park and the property owner has been issued the property for sale," says Deutsch," and to save the museum required amount of one million dollars."
