Description
The codex contains the text of the first three Gospels on 112 parchment leaves (23 cm by 14.7 cm) with two large lacunae at the beginning and end. The text of the manuscript begins at Matthew 5:44 and ends at Luke 6:9.[3] The text is written in one column per page, in 21-29 lines per page.[2]
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 234 Sections, the last in 16:9), with references to the Eusebian Canons (written below Ammonian Section numbers).[3]
It contains lectionary markings at the margin (added by a later hand), and subscriptions at the end of each Gospel (some of them from later hand).[3][4]
Text
The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Aland placed it in Category V.[5] It was not examined by Claremont Profile Method.[6]
History
Wiedmann and J. G. J. Braun collated some portions of the manuscript for Scholz (1794-1852).[7] The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scholz.[8] C. R. Gregory saw it in 1886.[3]
The manuscript is currently housed at the Biblioteca Marciana (Gr. I. 25) in Venice.[2]
