Notes: The Dominican cardinal Hugh of St. Cher (ca. 1200-1263) is most famous for writing the first concordance to the Bible. He also wrote a commentary on the entire Bible, in which he explained the text in terms of the four exegetical interpretations: the literal, the allegorical, the anagogical, and the moral. The manuscript shown here contains only a portion of this commentary, from 1 Kings to the Book of Esther.
