Page from a Mediaeval religious book, c15th century
The passages appear to be a commentary on the story of
Aaron, the brother of Moses in the Old Testament. Commentaries were
used by priests to prepare sermons and lectures. Ordinary
people would not have access to books like these.
The dark border to
this page is the remains of glue from its use as a pastedown in a
later book. Pastedowns strengthen the card or leather cover
of a book.
This page has
annotations and corrections suggesting it was used by a priest or
teacher when preparing sermons or lectures.
