Jerome's first epistle to Paulinus is the letter number 53 of Jerome, addressed to Paulinus of Nola.
The epistle in the Ransom Center copy of the Gutenberg Bible; there are two columns of text on the page surrounded by a hand-painted border made up of green foliage, colourful flowers and various birds. The first three lines of the first column have been added by hand in red. After the headlines, the first capital letter of the main text starts with a large green and brown hand painted 'F' which forms part of the border. A hand painted rubric letter 'Q' has been included halfway down the second column. Capital letters throughout the text have been highlighted in red and yellow.
It has been used as the preface for the Gutenberg Bible. This Bible was published by Johannes Gutenberg and Johann Fust in Mainz, Germany in 1454. The Gutenberg Bible is an edition of a 4th-century Latin translation of the Bible known as the Vulgate or common text.
"Jerome urges Paulinus, bishop of Nola, (for whom see Letter LVIII.) to make a diligent study of the Scriptures and to this end reminds him of the zeal for learning displayed not only by the wisest of the pagans but also by the apostle Paul. Then going through the two Testaments in detail he describes the contents of the several books and the lessons which may be learned from them. He concludes with an appeal to Paulinus to divest himself wholly of his earthly wealth and to devote himself altogether to God." This epistle was written in 394 A.D.[1]
