thumb|Codex Vaticanus latinus, 5750, part of "Skeireins", a commentary to the Gospel of John in Gothic. The Skeireins (; ) is the second-longest known surviving text in the Gothic language, after the version of the Bible by Ulfilas. It consists of eight fragments of a commentary on the Gospel of John which is commonly held to have originally extended over seventy-eight parchment leaves. It owes its title to the 19th-century German scholar Hans Ferdinand Massmann, who was the first to issue a comprehensive and correct edition of it: "Skeireins" means "explanation" in Gothic.
