Glossa Ordinaria
The Glossa Ordinaria is a medieval commentary on the Bible, created in the 12th century by scholars such as Anselm of Canterbury and Peter Lombard. It serves as a guide for understanding the Scriptures, providing explanations and interpretations alongside the biblical text. This work became a standard reference in theological studies during the Middle Ages.
The commentary is organized in a way that allows readers to see the biblical text and its glosses side by side. The Glossa Ordinaria played a significant role in shaping biblical exegesis and was widely used in universities, influencing later theological works and the study of Christianity.
