A Plain Introduction to the Criticism of the New Testament, Vol. I.
Scrivener, Frederick Henry Ambrose
Bible. New Testament -- Criticism, interpretation, etc.
521. Glasg. Hunt. Mus. Q. 7, 10 [xi], 4to, ff. 291, _prol._, κεφ. t.,
κεφ., τίτλ., _Am._, _subscr._ Both these were once Caesar de Missy’s
(_see_ Evan. 44). (Greg. 561.)
522. Glasg. Hunt. Mus. S. 8, 141 [xv], 4to, ff. 78, κεφ., _Lat._ Codd.
519-22 were first announced by Haenel (_see_ under Evan. 472). (Greg.
562.)
523. Lond., Mr. White, formerly Blenheim 3. B. 14 [xiii, Greg. xiv], 7-½ ×
6-¼, ff. 170 (22), _prol._, κεφ. _t._, κεφ., τίτλ., _Am._, _Eus._,
_lect._, ἀναγν., _syn._, _men._: like Apost. 52, once belonging to the
Metropolitan Church of Heraclea on the Propontis, and presented in 1738 to
Charles, Duke of Marlborough, _amoris et observantiae ergo_ by Thomas
Payne, Archdeacon of Brecon, once our Chaplain at Constantinople: a
bright, clean copy, written in very black ink, with vermilion
ornamentation, and barbarous _pict._ (Greg. 701.)
Mr. Bradshaw indicated in the “Transactions of the Royal Society of
Literature,” vol. ii. p. 355, two copies of the Gospels belonging to the
Earl of Leicester at Holkham, to be described with facsimiles in the
Catalogue of the Library there. They were examined by Dean Burgon, who
thus reported of them:—
524. Holkham 3 [xiii], 8-¾ × 6-1/6, of 183 leaves, four being misplaced.
It is beautifully written in twenty-seven long lines on a page. _Eus. t._,
τίτλ., _Am._ (not Eus.), imperfectly given: no _lect._ (κεφ., _subscr._,
_pict._). Besides five pictures of the Evangelists and gorgeous headings
to the Gospels are seventeen representations of Scripture subjects, some
damaged. This “superb MS. of extraordinary interest” in the style of its
writing closely resembles Evan. 38. (Greg. 557.)
525. Holkham 4 [xiii or earlier], 8-½ × 6-1/3, ff. 352 (20), finely
written, but quite different in style from Cod. 524. Τίτλ. in gold,
_lect._, ἀρχαί and τέλη in vermilion, κεφ., στίχ. numbered. (Κεφ. _t._,
_Am._, ἀναγν., _subscr._, στίχ., _pict._) (Greg. 558.)
Eight copies of the Gospels, brought together by the late Sir Thomas
Phillipps, Bart., at Middle Hill, Worcestershire, are now the property of
Mr. Fitzroy Fenwick, and, with the rest of this unrivalled private
collection of manuscripts, are now at Thirlestaine House, Cheltenham,
where Burgon examined them in 1880, and Hoskier in 1886, who quotes (Cod.
604, App. E), some of the readings. Scrivener had used some of them at
Middle Hill in 1856.
526. Phillipps 13,975 [xii], 12-½ × 9-½, ff. 196, once Lord Strangford’s
464, a grand copy, the text being surrounded with a commentary (abounding,
as usual, in contractions) in very minute letters. That on St. Mark is
Victor’s. _Pict._ of SS. Mark and Luke, beautiful illuminations for
headings of the Gospels. Κεφ., τίτλ., _Am._, _Eus._ in gold, _pict._
(_syn._, _men._ at end). (Greg. 556.)
