Description

The codex contains the text of the four Gospels on 229 paper leaves (size 28.4 cm by 21.1 cm),[2] with one lacuna in John 19:12-21:25. Paper is white, the ink is black. The text is written in two columns per page, 26 lines per page (size of column 20.6 by 6.5 cm), in black ink. The large initial letters in colour and rubricated.[3]

It is a curious copy, with the Latin and Greek in parallel columns, right column is Greek. The text is divided according to the κεφαλαια (chapters), whose numbers are given at the margin, written in Latin.[4][3]

Text

The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Hermann von Soden classified it to the textual family Kx.[5] Aland did not place it to any Category.[6] According to the Claremont Profile Method in Luke 1 and Luke 20 it belongs to the textual family Kx. In Luke 10 no profile was made.[5]

In Luke 2:38, in the Latin text, it has the reading "Israel" for "Jerusalem".

History

The scribe was a Latin. The Greek text is often adapted to the Latin one.

The manuscript was examined by Birch about 1782. C. R. Gregory saw it in 1886.[3]

It is currently housed at the Vatican Library (Vat. gr. 359), at Rome.[2]
