Text
The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Hermann von Soden classified it to the textual family Kr.[4] Aland placed it in Category V.[5]
According to the Claremont Profile Method it represents textual family Πb in Luke 1 (weak member) and family Πa in Luke 20 (weak member). In Luke 10 no profile was made.[4]
History
According to the colophon the manuscript was written in January, 1356. Wiedmann and J. G. J. Braun collated some portions of the manuscript for Scholz (1794-1852).[6] The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scholz.[7] C. R. Gregory saw it in 1886.[3]
The manuscript is currently housed at the Biblioteca Marciana (Gr. I. 22) in Venice.[2]
