This article is about the 7th-century Vetus Latina New Testament texts. For the 10th-century Slovene/Latin theological texts, see Freising manuscripts.

Folio 34 recto

The Codex Frisingensis, designated by r and q or 64 (in Beuron system), is a 6th or 7th century Latin manuscript of the New Testament. The text, written on vellum, is a version of the old Latin. The manuscript contains the text of the Pauline epistles with numerous lacunae[1] on only 26 parchment leaves.[2]

The manuscript is variously dated. Vogels and Wordsworth dated it to the 5th or 6th century, Merk to the 7th century, Bover and Kilpatrick to the 7th or 8th century.
