Ceolfrid Bible

It is closely related to the Codex Amiatinus, which is the only surviving complete Bible of the three ordered by Ceolfrid.

The eleven surviving vellum leaves of the manuscript contain portions of the Latin Vulgate text of the third and fourth Books of Kings.

The beginning of the Fourth Book of Kings is marked by an enlarged initial P decorated with red dots.

In the margin next to the initial P there is a Chi Rho monogram flanked by the Greek letters Alpha and Omega.
