The Evangelarium of Egmond (that. 850 – 875 to Christ)
——————————————————————————
The Evangelarium of Egmond is a book (handwriting) which is known for the fact that the oldest Dutch people are depicted on it. These Dutch are Count Dirk II and Countess Hildegard of Holland (photo 1). on photo 2 shows how Dirk and Hildegard worship Saint Adelbert. Dirk lets in 975 after Christ put their image in the book and donate it to the Abbey of Egmond. The funny thing is that this donation is also shown in the book itself in the photo 1. The oldest part of the book is in Reims (France) written around 850-875 to Christ.
——————————————————————————
An Evangeliary is a book containing the four Gospels from the Christian tradition. Johannes, Lucas, Matthew and Mark were disciples of Jesus Christ who each made their own version of his life, death and his resurrection. The lyrics are in Latin, which was the language of communication within the Catholic Church for centuries.
——————————————————————————
The book is made of parchment (dun dierenhuid) and therefore lasts much longer than, for example, paper. Despite this, it is a miracle that this medieval manuscript is more than 1000 has survived countless natural disasters and wars over the years. The writings were already very precious back then, because they were transcribed by hand. A book often lasted for many generations. Often new owners added pages or modified the text over time, so that the book remained 'up to date'.

Share the day after tomorrow 2 about the fascinating Evangelarium of Egmond!

"If you look at what is there, what is there then!" is a statement by the astrologer Sandra Jansen-van Galen. We live in a time when it's global, and maybe closer, all is not well. We should certainly not look away from that, but don't dwell on it. We must remain aware of the many beautiful people, moments, events, who are there too, like the beautifully singing song thrush (?) which we were allowed to see and hear at the Abbey of Egmond this week (photo).

If the territory of the Abbey in Egmond-Inside greatly expands, the Abbot bears 1129 management on a "advocatus" or steward, a rich farmer called Berwouts.

By taking part in the crusades is to reward the stewardship hereditary and the area declared to glory.
