Library has Newton's theological texts

JERUSALEM - He's considered to be one of the greatest scientists of all time. But Sir Isaac Newton was also an influential theologian who applied a scientific approach to the study of scripture, Hebrew and Jewish mysticism.
  
Now Israel's national library, an unlikely owner of a vast trove of Newton's writings, has digitized his theological collection -- some 7,500 pages in Newton's own handwriting -- and put it online. Among the yellowed texts are Newton's famous prediction of the apocalypse in 2060.
  
Newton revolutionized physics, mathematics and astronomy in the 17th and 18th century.
  
But the curator of Israel's national library's humanities collection said Newton was also a devout Christian who dealt far more in theology than he did in physics and believed that scripture provided a "code" to the natural world.
