There are two museums which may be the "Museum of Israel" you are
looking for:
 
The Israel Museum
P.O.B. 71117
Jerusalem  91710
Phone: 02-708811
Fax: 02-631833
(Their focus is archaeology, Judaica, ethnography, and fine arts)
 
Eretz Israel Museum
P.O.B. 17068
Tel Aviv 61170
Phone: 03-6415244
Fax: 03-6412408
(Their focus is the archaeology, ethnography, and history of Israel)
 
Note: if dialing the phone/fax numbers from outside Israel, do not
use the initial 0.
 
There is also a guide book which may be of use:
 
_The Museums of Israel_ by Nitza Rosovsky and Joy Ungerleider-Mayerson
(New York: Harry N. Abrams, Inc.), 1989.
 
Hope this helps.
