Kniha Job v husitském výkladu strahovského sborníku
Book of Job in a Hussite Interpretation of a Strahov Miscellany

Summary/Abstract: The Strahov manuscript DE IV 23 has preserved and included, apart from a Hus´s and an anonymous holiday postil, also a collection of other texts by an anonymous author. It is an interpretation of a part of chapters 24 and 25 of the St. Matthew´s Gospel, completed with an interpretation of a part of three chapters of the old Testament Book of Job. The Jobian anonymous sermons are similar to the Book of Job Latin interpretations by Master Jakoubek of Stříbro (Jacobellus de Misa) in their form and content, but the evidence for Jakoubek´s authorship cannot be proved. The anonymous interpretation of the Book of Job might have originated before the Hussite Revolution broke out and although it is based on the traditional authority of the Moralia by Gregory the Great, it is unambiguously indebted to the Hussite Movement but not to its radical stream.
