''How the Codex Was Found'' is a historical account written by Margaret Dunlop Gibson in 1893. The book details the discovery of a Syriac manuscript, known as the Codex Sinaiticus, by a German scholar named Constantin von Tischendorf in 1844. The manuscript was found in the Monastery of St. Catherine on Mount Sinai, Egypt, and is considered one of the most important biblical manuscripts in existence. The book provides a detailed account of the circumstances surrounding the discovery, including the challenges faced by Tischendorf in obtaining permission to study and eventually acquire the manuscript. It also includes a description of the manuscript itself, its contents, and its significance in the study of biblical history.
