The text, written on vellum, is a version of the Latin Vulgate Bible and contains the text of the Acts of the Apostles, Epistles, Book of Revelation, and non-biblical material (an Etymological dictionary). The manuscript has not survived in a complete condition, some parts of it have been lost.[1] The codex contains the Comma Johanneum.

Description

Codex Sangallensis contains 160 leaves (320 pages) arranged in quarto, in one thick volume. The measures of leaves are 22.3 by 19.2 cm. A single paper fly-leaf was added by a later hand. The text is written in 22 lines in one (pages 1-49) or two (pages 50-320) columns per page in Carolingian minuscule letters with black ink.[2] The head-pieces are written in uncial letters, the initial letters are red. It has some margin notes.[2][3] The order of books: Pauline epistles (folios 2-163), Acts (163-244), Catholic epistles (245-283), and Apocalypse (283-320). The text does not contain the second and third Epistle of John.[4][5] The original codex did not contain the spurious text of the Comma Johanneum (in 1 John 5:7), but it was added by a later hand on the margin (see picture).[4] The Comma:

sicut in caelo tres sunt pater uerbum et spiritus et tres sunt (as in heaven three are: the Father, the Word, and the Spirit, they are three).[6]

History
