Of the new cuts, those representing the Creation (9a), the destruction of Nineveh (43a), the destruction of Babylon (46b), the rebuilding of Jerusalem (52a) and the city of Jerusalem (52a) appear to have been suggested by illustrations in the edition of Rudimentum novitiorum, printed by Lucas Brandis at Lübeck, 5 August, 1475"--BM XVth century Incipit: Inden beghinne was dat woert.
