| This image from the Gutenberg Bible is of the text of Book I of the Maccabees, which begins, “After Alexander son of Philip, the Macedonian, who came from the land of Kittim, had defeated King Darius of the Persians and the Medes, he succeeded him as king.” The Gutenberg Bible is alternatively referred to as the Mazarin Bible, because the first copy belonged to the library of Cardinal Mazarin in Paris. | ||
