The Vilnius Old Testament Florilegium has been preserved as part of manuscript F 19-262 (Vilnius, The Wróblewskie Library of the Lithuanian Academy of Sciences), dating back to the first third of the 16 th century (after 1517) and comprising Old Testament books (Job, Ruth, the Psalter, the Song of Songs, Ecclesiastes, Proverbs, Lamentations, Daniel, and Esther) which, except the Psalms, had been translated from Hebrew into Ruthenian. The author argues that these are in fact the third volume of the Tanakh in a Ruthenian translation produced during the 2 nd half of the 15 th century in Kiev. There is reason to think that unlike the rest of the Old Testament books which were translated into Ruthenian, the Psalms of this corpus were originally written in Hebrew using the Cyrillic characters. A small portion of this Cyrillic transcription (Psalm 150) is found in the Cyrillic Manual of Hebrew which is preserved in an East Slavic miscellany of the 3 rd quarter of the 16 th century (Moscow, Russian State Archive of Early Acts, F. Mazurin collection (f. 196), inventory 1, No 616, f. 124-130) and textually related to the Vilnius Old Testament Florilegium. At least some psalms must have been sung or recited in Hebrew by certain groups of East Slavs in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, Novgorod the Great, and Muscovy during the 15th -16th centuries.
