Text, folio 240 (verso), from a Gospel Book with Commentaries

Cleveland Museum of Art

An open book with yellowed pages displays a page filled with handwritten text in an ancient language, likely Greek. The book's cover is not visible; the pages are yellowed and worn, with darker edges and spots of damage. The text on the page appears to be written in a flowing script, with no illustrations or images present. A strip of tape holds the book open on the left side. The background behind the book is a dark grey color. For an image with "Gospel Book with Commentaries" as the title and the verso side of folio 240 displayed, the verso side displays the end of a section and the beginning of another.
