Summary:
This explanation of, or commentary, on the Bible book Leviticus was
written by Raoul of Flaix (Radulfus Flaviacensis), a
mid-twelfth-century Benedictine monk. The text is incomplete: only
the first ten of in total twenty books are contained in this
manuscript (cf. Ms. 18), and of these books several folia are
missing. The absence of a cross-shaped stamp of Ten Duinen on the
last leaf might suggest that the losses postdate the seventeenth
century. Possibly this text was written in the scriptorium of Ten
Duinen. The text is written in two columns, with initials in red
and blue, and dates to roughly the first quarter of the thirteenth
century. The volume is bound in modern calf. [Summary by Dr. Mark
