Here begins the list of the Old Testament: which are the canonical books. Thus: Genesis, lines … Exodus, lines … Numbers, lines … Leviticus, lines … Deuteronomy, lines … Jesus Nave, lines … Judges, lines … They make seven books, lines XVIIIC Ruth, lines CCI Kingdoms, book 1, lines 11CCC Kingdoms, book 2, lines 11CC Kingdoms, book 3, lines ILD Kingdoms, book 4, lines I1CCL They make lines VIIID Chronicles (Paralipomenon), book 1, I1XL Book 2, lines LIC Maccabees, book 1, lines IICCC Book 2, lines DCCC Job, lines DCCC Tobit, lines DCCCC Esther Judith, lines C Psalms of David, 151, lines V Of Solomon, lines VD Major prophets, lines XV ICCCLXX, four in number Isaiah, lines 1IDLXXX Jeremiah, lines 111IICCOC L Daniel, lines CCCL Ezekiel, lines ILLDCCC Twelve prophets, I11DCCC All together there will be lines LXVIIIID But as it is said in the Apocalypse of John, "I saw twenty-four elders casting their crowns before the throne," so our forefathers approve that these books are canonical, and that the elders said this.
