1 janv. 800 - Book Of Kells Created
Description:
-The Book of Kells contains the four Gospels of the Christian scriptures written in black, red, purple, and yellow ink in an insular majuscule script, preceded by prefaces, summaries, and concordances of Gospel passages
-Missing several pages and passages
-The book contains preliminary matter, the complete text of the Gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke, and the Gospel of John through John 17:13
-The remainder of John and an unknown amount of the preliminary matter is missing and was perhaps lost when the book was stolen early in the 11th century. The remaining preliminary matter consists of two fragmentary lists of Hebrew names contained in the Gospels
-There are a number of differences between the text and the accepted Gospels.
-In the genealogy of Jesus, which starts at
Luke 3:23, Kells names an extra ancestor.
-Matthew 10:34b The canonised Bible
reads "I came not to send peace, but a
sword," but the manuscript reads gaudium
("joy") where it should read gladium
("sword") and so translates as "I came not
[only] to send peace, but joy."
