Medieval Manuscripts from the Collection of Richard and Mary Rouse

ROUSE MS L.34
NEW TESTAMENT (LEAF). PRAGUE (?), S. XV IN.

One leaf from an early fifteenth-century manuscript of the New Testament in Czech containing part of Paul’s letter to the Philippians. The Czech Hussites were strongly influenced by the English Wycliffite belief in the authority of the Bible, but far fewer scriptural manuscripts survive in Czech than in Middle English.
