Natur a chynnwys
A volume, [17 cent., second ½] (watermark similar to Churchill 401), containing Scriptural genealogies (ff. 2-68) and the 'Onomasticon', a dictionary of individuals and peoples mentioned in the Bible (ff. 70-316 verso), both compiled by a certain William Spenser, gent.
The genealogies show the descent of Jesus Christ from Adam and Eve but also include pedigrees for the Twelve Tribes of Israel (ff. 8-31 verso); other peoples and empires appearing in the Old and New Testaments are represented by genealogies or by lists of individuals as appropriate (ff. 33-68); the section on the Roman Empire lists other figures appearing in the New Testament (ff. 57-68). As well as the Bible the compiler has made use of other sources including Josephus' Antiquities of the Jews (see ff. 138 verso, 161 verso, 187 verso, 195, 245); there are also extracts from Thomas Godwyn [Goodwin], Moses and Aaron: Civil and Ecclesiastical Rites Used by the Ancient Hebrewes (London: printed by Iohn Haviland, 1625, STC 11951), pp. 58-60 (f. 261 verso), 61-66 (f. 127 verso). The preface (ff. 2 recto-verso) consists mainly of excerpts from Works of the Great Albionean Divine Mr Hugh Broughton, ed. by John Lightfoot (London: printed for Nath. Ekins, 1662, Wing B4997), pp. 376 (2nd Tome), 689 (3rd tome). Many names and headings are picked out in red ink, with names of prophets in green ink. Various additions and marginal notes have been added to the Onomasticon in the same hand.
