Incoming data
The catalogue entry for this text has not been published as yet. Until then, a selection of data is made available below.
A short Latin treatise on the Jewish observance of festivals and its relevance for the Paschal question. It comes in the form of an epistle or disputatio addressed by a certain peregrinus to an unspecified venerabilis papa, but lacks a subscription. In some manuscripts, it is ascribed to Jerome. There is evidence to suggest that it is, in fact, a Hiberno-Latin or Irish-influenced text of seventh-century date.
