Bishop Paul of Burgos, who converted from Judaism to Christianity at the end of the 14th century, composed the Additiones to the postil of Nicholas of Lyra and the Scrutinium scripturarum to prove that belief in Christ corresponds to a literal understanding of the Old Testament. This manuscript was created in 1436/37 and is from the Dominican Monastery of Basel.

The account of the delegation of the Council of Basel to Greece was in large part written by the Council notary Jakob Hüglin (ca. 1400–1484). Hüglin was active at the Council as a notary (from 1432) and as a scribe (from 1435). In 1437, together with the notary Dietrich Winckelman, he accompanied the delegation to Constantinople. Part of the manuscript served as the exemplar for the manuscript Hs 4 of the Episcopal Archive of the Bishopric of Basel in Solothurn.

This composite manuscript contains acts of the delegation of the Council of Basel to Constantinople, declarations of protest, and notarial instruments. It previously had a limp binding made from a 1436 marriage dispensation charter, which today is stored separately. The majority of the manuscript consists of a report on the mission to Greece and is partially based on Jakob Hüglin's notes conserved in the Hs 3 of the Episcopal Archive of the Bishopric of Basel in Solothurn. Jakob Hüglin (ca. 1400–1484) was active at the Council of Basel as notary from 1432, and as scribe from 1435. In 1437, together with the notary Dietrich Winckelman, he accompanied the delegation to Constantinople. The trip lasted a year, until February 1438. The composite manuscript consists of 17 fascicules, which are sewn together and were copied by different scribes.

This paper manuscript consists of four codicological units, and (contrary to Scherrer) dates to the fifteenth century. The first unit includes blank folios A–F and has an old, fifteenth-century, foliation 182–187. The second unit (f. G and ff. 1–22) first contains a longer, crossed-out table of contents, and, beneath it, an updated, shorter table of contents; both tables come from the fifteenth century. On ff. 1ra–22rb follows the sermon or treatise De passione domini, which is ascribed to Henry of Langenstein both in the manuscript and in the previous catalogues, but ought to be attributed to Henry Totting of Oyta († 1397). According to the rubric comments at the beginning and end of the treatise (f. 1ra, 22rb), this text was copied at the order of the Dominican Conrad Bainli. The third part (ff. 23–81) transmits another sermon or treatise De passione domini, and was produced by a second scribe, who, according to the colophon (f. 74va) made the copy in 1446, also at the behest of Conrad Bainli. The fourth unit (ff. 82–129) contains first on ff. 82ra-116ra the Expositio dominicae passionis by Jordan of Quedlinburg. According to the colophon (f. 116ra) Conrad Bainli, one of the probably two copyists of the Expositio, finished copying the text in 1437. There then follow on ff. 117ra–123ra excerpts from the four Gospels (a Gospel concordance on the Passion?) made by yet another scribe, who, according to the colophon (f. 123ra), also finished the copy in 1437. The binding dates to the fifteenth century and has wooden covers that were already reused.
