A long-lost chapter of the Bible that was erased more than 1,500 years ago has been rediscovered under three layers of text using ultraviolet (UV) light - and it is one of the oldest translations of the Gospels.The manuscript is chapters 11 through 12 in Matthew and is one of only four manuscripts written in ancient Syrian manuscripts to be found.While it describes scenes written in the original Greek text, the newly discovered version translates more detail that experts say 'offers a unique gateway to the very early phase in the history of the textual transmission of the Gospels.'
