H.A.G. Houghton
Several Latin manuscripts of the Gospels are described as ‘mixed texts’, which combine Old and Vulgate readings. Würzburg Universitätsbibliothek M.p.th.f.67, a ninth-century gospel book possibly Breton origin, has been called text’ although it not hitherto featured in list published by Institut Vetus Latina. A full collation text John reveals that two portions (John 1:1 – 5:40 12:34 13:10) may be categorized Latin. Many non-Vulgate readings these passages shared with other codices (notably Codex Rehdigeranus), while variants peculiar to this manuscript correspond citations Augustine Jerome. It is also one very few witnesses an additional phrase 8:9. Although Synoptic have collated they too partial affiliation, appears particularly extensive Matthew. As result study, now given number Latina 11A.
