Abstract/Contents

Summary: CCCC MS 204 contains Stephen Langton's Commentaries on the Old Testament books of Isaiah, Kings, Chronicles and Maccabees, though the text on Kings is incomplete, containing only the moral commentary rather than the full text. Stephen Langton (c. 1150-1228) wrote numerous commentaries on the books of the Old and New Testaments, and is among the most important of early scholastic commentators. The manuscript was written in the thirteenth century and contains a later, perhaps fourteenth-century, incomplete title list and possible shelf mark.
