Codex Fuldensis
From Textus Receptus
The Codex Fuldensis is a manuscript based on the Latin Vulgate made between 541 and 546. It contains the 27 canonical books of the New Testament, the Epistle to the Laodiceans, and a copy of Jerome's Prologue to the Canonical Gospels. The gospels are in the form of Tatian's Diatessaron. Its text is akin to that of Codex Amiatinus. [1]
Victor of Capua found an Old Latin version of Tatian's arrangement and substituted the Vulgate for the Old Latin.<ref name=Metzger/> The manuscript survives in the monastic library at Fulda, where it served as the source text for vernacular harmonies in Old High German, Eastern Frankish and Old Saxon.
