Description

The codex contains the text of the four Gospels, on 376 paper leaves (size 28 cm by 20 cm), with some lacunae.[2] The text is written in one column per page, 23 lines per page.[2][3][4]

Text

The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine. Hermann von Soden classified it to the textual family Ik.[5] Kurt Aland placed it in Category V.[6]

According to the Claremont Profile Method it represents textual family Π in Luke 1 and Luke 10, as a weak member. In Luke 20 it represents textual family Kx.[5]

History

According to the colophon it was written in September 1360 by Theophylact.[4][7] Currently the manuscript is dated by the INTF to the 14th century.[3]

It was examined and described by Victor Gardthausen (as 952).[4][7]

The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Gregory (904e).[4] It was not on the Scrivener's list, but it was added to his list by Edward Miller in the 4th edition of A Plain Introduction to the Criticism of the New Testament.[8]

Jacob Greelings collated the text of the Gospel of Matthew and it was included in appendix A to work of S. Kubo.[9]

It is not cited in critical editions of the Greek New Testament (UBS4,[10] NA28[11]).

The manuscript is housed at the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Alexandria (77).[2][3]
