The Grail Knight's Bible was a a large Bible kept and read by the Grail Knight, who guarded the Holy Grail at the Temple of the Sun.
In 1938, Indiana Jones had entered the Grail sanctuary to find the knight reading the Bible, which rested on a stone table. When the knight felt Jones' presence he stopped reading, grabbed his sword, and tried to strike Jones. Unfortunately, the knight's strength had passed through the centuries, and he fell backward upon his manuscript.
Behind the scenes
The manuscript prop, known as Grail Knight's book measures 32 x 25 x 6 cm. An examination of the text on the page shown indicates that it is likely not a Bible as it uses the word Kamaalot (the old French word for Camelot) twice.[1]
