- Family 1
Family 1 is a group of the Greek
Gospel manuscripts , varying in date from the 12th to the 15th century. The group takes its name from the minuscule codex 1, now inBasel . "Family 1" is also kown as "the Lake Group", symbolized as "f"1. Hermann von Soden calls the group Ih. Aland list it as Category III in the Gospels and Category V elsewhere.Family 1 was discovered in
1902 , whenKirsopp Lake (1872-1946) published "Codex 1 of theGospels and its Allies" (118, 131, 209), and established the existence new textual family. This group of manuscripts based on four minuscules (1, 118, 131, 209), but now we consider 205, 205abs, 872 (Mark only), 884 (in part), 1582, 2193, and 2542 (in part) to be a members of the family.The most obvious characteristic of the Lake Group is that these manuscripts placed after John 21:25. In addition, 1 and 1582 contain a scholion questioning the authenticity of . In Mark 6:51 word εξίσταντο was changed into εξεπλήσσοντο against all other manuscripts.
B. H. Streeter, working largely on the basis of data supplied by Lake, proposed that Family 1, along with the
Codex Koridethi (Θ), Family 13, the minuscules 28, 565, 700, and the Armenian and Georgian versions, were the remnants of what he labelled the Caesarean Text, differing in a number of common respects from the then established Byzantine, Western andAlexandrian text-type s.See also
