History

Gregory dated the manuscript to the 14th-century.[1] It has been assigned by the Institute for New Testament Textual Research (INTF) to the 14th-century.[2][3]

Of the history of the codex ℓ 313 nothing is known until 1864, when it was in the possession of a dealer at Janina in Epeiros. It was then purchased from him by a representative of Baroness Burdett-Coutts (1814–1906), a philanthropist,[5] together with other Greek manuscripts (among them lectionaries ℓ 314 and ℓ 315)[1] which were transported to England in 1870–1871.[6]

The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by F. H. A. Scrivener (494) Caspar René Gregory (number 313e).[1]

It used to be held in London (Burdett-Coutts II. 5).[1] The codex is now housed in the University of Michigan Library (Ms. 33) in Ann Arbor.[2][3]

The manuscript is not cited in critical editions of the Greek New Testament (UBS4,[7] NA28[8]). It was digitized by the CSNTM in 2008.[4]
