JERUSALEM, Feb 4 ― The inscriptions on these tablets are a vital link to the lives of Judeans exiled from Jerusalem to Babylon some 2,500 years ago.

The wedge-shaped tablets were found in Iraq, which was then Babylon, and were acquired by an Israeli collector.

They're currently on show at Jerusalem's Bible Lands Museum.

Ancient Babylonia expert, Filip Vukosavovic, says the tablets show that the exiled Judeans rebuilt their lives. ― Reuters
