Lectionary 1 is designated by siglum ℓ 1 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering). It is a Greek manuscript of the New Testament, on vellum leaves. Palaeographically it has been assigned to the 10th-century.[1] Formerly it was known as Codex Colbertinus 700, then Codex Regius 278.

Description

The codex contains lessons from the Gospels lectionary (Evangelistarium) with some lacunae.[2] The text is written in Greek Uncial letters, on 265 parchment leaves (30 cm by 24 cm), 2 columns per page, 10 lines per page,[1] 7-9 letters per line.[2]

Lessons of the codex were red from Pascha to Pentecost.[1]

History

Formerly it was variously dated. Scrivener dated to the 8th-century,[3] Henri Omont to the 14th-century, Gregory to the 10th-century. In the present day it is unanimously dated to the 10th-century.[4]

The manuscript once belonged to Colbert.[3] It was examined and described by Bernard de Montfaucon,[5] Wettstein,[6] Scholz,[2] Paulin Martin,[7] and Henri Omont.[8] C. R. Gregory saw the manuscript in 1885.[2]

It was added to the list of the New Testament manuscripts by Wettstein.[9]

The manuscript is sporadically cited in the critical editions of the Greek New Testament of UBS (UBS3).[10] It is not cited in UBS4.[11]

The codex now is located in the Bibliothèque nationale de France (Gr. 278).[1][4]
