290 x 190 mm. (11 3/8 x 7 1/2"). Double columns, 50 lines in a lovely gothic book hand. Initials struck in red, chapter numbers and headline in alternating red and blue, three two- to three-line initials in blue or red with blue and red penwork, extending the length of the leaf. Later ink foliation to upper corner. A couple of spots where the ink has eaten through the vellum (still entirely legible), a touch of marginal soiling, but still quite a fine leaf, with vibrant and well-preserved decoration. Written in a very neat and pleasing hand, this handsome Bible leaf presents us with a larger surface that is much easier to read than the small "pocket Bible" leaves from the same period that are frequently seen on the market. The professional script is highly regular, contains fewer abbreviations than is often the case, and is written in larger, more legible letters. The text here is from Numbers 28:19-31:13, in which Moses transmits God's instructions to the Israelites regarding the importance of keeping vows.…
