A Gospel Book is a codex or bound volume, containing one or more of the four Gospels of the Christian New Testament.

 [No title]
  It quotes Jerome's own opening in its defence of the canonical gospels against rivals by stressing the importance of the number four and by showing that the canonical gospels are prophesied in scripture, most notably in the four rivers of Paradise and the four carrying rings of the Ark of the Covenant.
  The standard gospel quaternities are therefore used in Clm 6233 as starting-points for a series of sophisticated theological and mystical expositions on the divine descent testified in the gospels.
               This cosmic symbolism of the fourfold harmony of the gospels is echoed by the elaboration of traditional scriptural images of the four dimensions of Noah's Ark and the four carrying rings of the Ark of the Covenant as figures of the four gospels' united testimony in defending and supporting the Church against heresy.

 An Introduction to Anglo-Saxon Manuscripts
The depictions of the evangelists were to assume several forms in insular art: zoomorphic (the beast symbols); anthropomorphic (portraits of the evangelists in human guise, often accompanied by their identifying symbols); and zoo-anthropomorphic (human figures with the heads of beast symbols).
In the Lindisfarne Gospels of c.700 the artist-scribe, Eadfrith, introduced the practice of depicting the evangelists as scribes--an extremely influential form, of Mediterranean inspiration.

The Lindisfarne Gospels, made around 715-20 as a focal point for the shrine of St Cuthbert, is an exuberant celebration of the successful integration of cultures and of an oecumen which stretched from the Atlantic seaboard of Ireland to the deserts of Egypt, Palestine and Syria.
The Gospel had been carried to the farthest edges of the known world and the distinctive and vital contribution of those far-flung isles was reflected back to the centre.
During this ceremony four copies of the Gospels would be laid on the four corners of the altar, open at an evangelist miniature which was used didactically to explain the nature and symbolism of the four Gospels.

The masterpiece of this school is the Syriac Evangeliary written in 586 at the Monastery of Zagba (Mesopotamia) by the monk Rabula (since the fifteenth century in the Laurentian Library, Florence).
In these three manuscripts the painting has an anecdotic character; it is intended to illustrate the text, and sometimes two periods of a scene are represented in a picture.
The Chloudov Psalter of Moscow (ninth cent.), those of Vatopedi (tenth cent.), the Vatican (Barberini Library: dated 1059), etc. are the principal specimens of this class.

 An Introduction to Anglo-Saxon Manuscripts
Within the sphere of ecclesiastical production it should not be assumed that permanent attachment to a single scriptorium (or 'writing office') was entailed--the manuscripts themselves yield plenty of evidence that scribes and artists, as well as their works and exemplars, were mobile.
Trainee scribes would often be allowed to test their hand, even in prestigious works (such as the Royal Bible) and their efforts, along with corrections by their mentors, may occasionally be detected in passages of the manuscripts themselves.
Eadfrith, the alleged maker of the Lindisfarne Gospels, achieved the position of Bishop of Lindisfarne (its binder, Aethilwald, later succeeding him) and was obviously an important member of the community.

Above it was one of Suger's crucifixes, a wooden one, between images of the Virgin and St. John, whilst on the gallery of it was planted, likewise by Suger, a pulpitum whence the Gospel was read.
This pulpitum was made up out of old materials, which appear formerly to have covered the whole gallery, and consisted of tablets of ivory sculptured with figures (presumably like the ivory throne at Ravenna) mixed with animals made of copper.
The repoussŽ plates in question probably belonged to the original binding of the manuscript when it was given by Charles the Bald in the first instance to St.-Denis, and they may even have been wrought at St.-Denis.
