Description
The codex contains a complete text of the four Gospels on 375 parchment leaves (16.5 cm by 12 cm). The text is written in one column per page, in 20 lines per page.[2] It is very beautifully written in upright characters.[3]
The text is divided according to the κεφαλαια (chapters), whose numbers are given at the margin, and their τιτλοι (titles) at the top of the pages. There is also a division according to the Ammonian Sections (in Mark 233 Sections, the last in 16:8), with references to the Eusebian Canons (written below Ammonian Section numbers).[4]
It contains the Epistula ad Carpianum, Eusebian Canon tables, Prolegomena, matter of Cosmas, tables of the κεφαλαια (tables of contents) before each Gospel, Synaxarion, Menologion, and pictures.[4] The manuscript has survived in a good condition.[4]
Text
The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Hermann von Soden classified it to the textual family Kx.[5] Aland placed it in Category V.[6] According to the Claremont Profile Method it represents textual family Kx in Luke 10 and Luke 20. In Luke 1 it has a mixture of the Byzantine families.[5]
History
The manuscript was written by Philip, a monk.[7]
Wiedmann and J. G. J. Braun collated some portions of the manuscript for Scholz (1794-1852).[3] The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scholz.[8] C. R. Gregory saw it in 1886.[4]
The manuscript is currently housed at the Biblioteca Marciana (Gr. I. 18) in Venice.[2]
