Translation - horum autem distributore gratiarum iuxta... (Latin)

"felicet"? Maybe it should be "felicem"? What do you think, my expert?

CC: Efylove

Yes, probably "felicem".

jairhaas, could you check your source, please, according to my remark above?

I made a mistake, it reads: feilicet

I'm sorry, but this word is even more weird and not Latin for sure...

We are dealing with a book printed at the end of the 16th century, a bit hard to decipher. Does "scilicet" help you?

Oh, yes!!! It's a really good one!!! So you can edit... Thank you!

I finished editing.

Thank you, jairhaas!

jairhaas, hi! could the first word - "horum" - be "harum"?

No, it definitely says "horum", which I have learned is the Gen. Plu. of Hic/Hoc. I have found the combination "horum autem" on the net in several places. Jairhaas

jairhaas,
I have to ask you again: Please, don't call for an admin all the time, this is not an administrative issue, but something that is being discussed between you and the Latin experts. They will get your message, OK?

Uhm... I've got some problems with that "horum" - which means "of these" (but "these" who?) - and that "legalem" at the end of the first line... What it is said in your book before this sentence, jairhaas?

Lilian, it seems to me that there might be some technical problems on the system, I am not calling for any admins, only answering the questions I am being asked. I am going to answer Efylove's question, please check if this entails a call for an admin. Thank you!

Efylve, before that is the headline or subject of the discussion: "An liber Iosue sit historicus, vel prophetalis; & qui libri sint prophetales, & historici. Et de Pentateucho Moysi" (of Moses).

I think you are checking the box under the message field. You don't have to since the messages will come to you anyway. After you write the message, just click on the blue box with an arrow.
Let's try. Answer this message the way I said, OK?

Ok, jairhaas. I've translated it. But I'm not so sure, because the subject is quite difficult to me... So, if you find something strange, please tell me.

And, Aneta, please: could you take a look at this?

Efee, I agree with you it should be "harum" instaed of "horum". "harum" can be connected with "gratiarum" then. Otherwise I have no idea with what to connect it...

I've read it as a partitive complement linked to the introduction of this sentence:
"An liber Iosue sit historicus, vel prophetalis; & qui libri sint prophetales, & historici. Et de Pentateucho Moysi"

horum = of these books (the ones mentioned in the introduction)

?

Well, it may be like you say, Efee. Let's take it that "quorum" concerned the books. We have no context here, so we must assume sth... I accept this presumption...
