Summary:
Manuscript 1 contains the full text of the Vulgate Bible, copied in
the thirteenth century. Some pages have since been removed,
including the first leaf of Genesis and the last leaf of Numeri,
The text is copied in two columns and structured with decorated
initials and chapter numbers alternately in red and blue, and
rubrics. In this it resembles the decoration found in
mid-thirteenth century-Bibles produced in Northern France. The last
folia (ff. 371r-391v) contain the Interpretationes Hebraicorum
nominum, a list of all Hebrew names found in the Bible with
additional explanations. This last text is attributed to Remigius
of Auxerre (Remigius Altissiodorensis; d. 908), a French
Benedictine monk and grammar teacher. It was a popular text, found
both as part of a Bible as well as separate texts. The decoration
is similar to that of the books of the Bible, while the text is
structured in three columns. [Summary by Dr. Mark Vermeer] Title:
