Summary

Fragment of a manuscript containing Origen's sixth homily on the Book of Judges, in the Latin translation by Rufinus of Aquileia. It is in situ in the laced-case binding of the volume Herlufsholm 250.8, a small octavo print of Jacques Aubert's Progymnasmata (Basel, by Sebastian Henricpetri 1579). The parchment is painted black, obscuring the text, but the text is legible using infrared reflectography.
