I am reading a passge which says:"Space does not permit us to elaborate on this period in detail. It is, as it turns out, the single longest chapter in the history of the Church. " I want to know whether the expression"the single longest chapter" means "the only longest chapter". Thanks very much.
Yes, chapter in here means = period ʱ, episodeһ, stageλʱ, phase, intervalʱ, eraʱ etc.
"the single longest chapter" = "a single instant of the longest continuous period" as rightfully pointed out by Shang!
