Roll. A book, in ancient times, consisted of a single, long strip of paper or parchment, which was usually kept rolled upon a stick, and was unrolled when a person wished to read it. The roll was usually written on one side only, and hence, the particular notice of one that was "written within and without." Ezekiel 2:10. The writing was arranged in columns.
