What it is
Classroom notes from the school at Canterbury, explaining biblical words with reference to Greek, Syriac usage, and the actual geography of the Near East.
Why it lasted
Proof that Greek learning reached seventh-century England directly, and the most literal-minded exegesis produced in the early medieval West.
Where to read it
Public domain and free to read in full, though not held here. The archives below have it.
These open a search on each archive rather than a direct link, which is the honest way to point at an edition nobody here has checked line by line.
