According to the Claremont Profile Method it represents textual family Kr in Luke 1, Luke 10, and Luke 20, as a perfect member of the family.[7]
The text of the Pericope Adulterae (John 7:53-8:11) is marked by an obelus.[5] In Revelation 5,10 it has textual variant ἡμᾶς. Other manuscripts have αὐτούς.[9]
