== Naskah dan Ikon ==
Perpustakaan biara ini menyimpan koleksi kedua terbesar di dunia yang meliputi banyak "codex" dan naskah-naskah kuno; hanya perpustakaan [[Vatican Library]] saja yang lebih banyak koleksinya. Naskah-naskah tersebut ditulis dalam bahasa-bahasa [[bahasa Yunani|Yunani]], [[bahasa Arab|Arab]], [[bahasa Armenia|Armenia]], [[bahasa Koptik|Koptik]], [[bahasa Ibrani|Ibrani]], [[bahasa Georgia|Georgia]], dan [[bahasa Aram|Aram]].
Pada bulan Mei 1844, [[Konstantin von Tischendorf]] mengunjungi biara ini untuk melakukan penelitian dan menemukan [[Codex Sinaiticus]], bertarikh abad ke-4 M, saat itu merupakan naskah Alkitab tertua yang hampir lengkap. Naskah itu meninggalkan biara tersebut pada abad ke-19 untuk disimpan di Rusia, kemudian dibeli oleh pemerintah [[Britania Raya|Britania]] dan sekarang disimpan di [[British Library]]. Beberapa waktu sebelum tanggal 1 September 2009, ditemukan lagi sebuah fragmen Codex Sinaiticus yang sebelumnya tidak terlihat.<ref>"[http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/africa/fragment-from-worlds-oldest-bible-found-hidden-in-egyptian-monastery-1780274.html Fragmen dari Alkitab tertua di dunia yang tersembunyi dalam sebuah biara di Mesir]".

Pada bulan Februari 1892, Agnes Smith Lewis mengidentifikasi sebuah [[palimpsest]] in St Catherine's library that became known as the [[Syriac Sinaiticus]] and is still in the Monastery's possession. Agnes and her sister [[Agnes and Margaret Smith|Margaret Dunlop Gibson]] returned with a team of scholars that included [[J. Rendel Harris]], to photograph and transcribe the work in its entirety.<ref>{{cite book|last=Soskice|first=Janet|title=The Sisters of Sinai: How two lady adventureres discovered the hidden gospels|year=2009|publisher=Vintage|location=London|isbn=978-1-4000-3474-1|pages=Chapter 14}}</ref> As the manuscript predates the Codex Sinaiticus, it became crucial in understanding the history of the New Testament. ▼

▲The Monastery also has a copy of the [[Achtiname of Muhammad|''Achtiname'']], in which the Prophet [[Muhammad]] is claimed to have bestowed his protection upon the monastery.<ref>Brandie Ratliff, "The monastery of Saint Catherine at Mount Sinai and the Christian communities of the Caliphate."

▲The most important manuscripts have since been filmed or digitized, and so are accessible to scholars. This is certainly not the case for the discoveries of 1975, which previously could be viewed and evaluated exclusively by [[Kurt Aland]] and [[Barbara Aland]] from the [[Institute for New Testament Textual Research]] in Münster, Germany in 1982. A team of imaging scientists and scholars from the USA and Europe is currently using spectral imaging techniques developed for imaging the [[Archimedes Palimpsest]] to study more than one hundred palimpsests in the monastery library. <ref name="imaging">{{cite web|url=http://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/magazine/in-the-sinai-a-global-team-is-revolutionizing-the-preservation-of-ancient-manuscripts/2012/08/30/1c203ef4-ca1f-11e1-aea8-34e2e47d1571_story.html|title=In the Sinai, a global team is revolutionizing the preservation of ancient manuscripts|Washington POST Magazine Sept. 8, 2012|accessdate=2012-09-07}}</ref>
