Note 300 — Chapter II · THE CONTRIBUTION OF WESTERN CHRISTENDOM BEFORE 1100 A. D.
Reading edition
This is taken from the King James version, which here follows the version of the Septuagint. Jerome translated the Hebrew as follows: “And the Lord God had planted a paradise of pleasure from the beginning.” Raban Maur pointed out the divergence between these two translations; likewise Peter Lombard in the twelfth century. See Coli, op. cit., p. 68, and also below, p. 462, note 35.
