From Wikipedia
The Ketef Hinnom scrolls, also described as Ketef Hinnom amulets, are the oldest surviving texts currently known from the Hebrew Bible, dated to c. 600 BCE. The text, written in the Paleo-Hebrew script, has fragmentary phrases and words paralleling the Book of Numbers in the Hebrew Bible, and has been described as "one of the most significant discoveries ever made" for biblical studies. The two silver scrolls were uncovered in 1979 at Ketef Hinnom, an archaeological site southwest of the Old City of Jerusalem, and were found to contain a variation of the Priestly Blessing, found in Numbers 6:24–26 (see also Mechon-Mamre). The scrolls were dated paleographically to the late 7th or early 6th century BCE, placing them in the First Temple period.
