Notes:
CCCC MS 48 Chapter examining the origin of modern chapter divisions in the Bible, suggesting its origins are not in Paris around the start of the 13th century, but in St Albans c.1180. CCCC MS 48 is the earliest biblical codex with modern chapter divisions and this article notes the discrepancy in date between date of the text and chapter numbers, the influence of three-column Hebrew codices and the reception of Greek and Arabic learning at St Albans, 31-66
