History
The manuscript once belonged to the Polish high noble family Radziwiłł — like ℓ 34 — hence name of the codex. It was added to the list of the New Testament manuscripts by Wettstein.[4][5]
The text of the codex was merely examined by Bengel (Augustianus 4), Matthaei, and Scholz.[2] It was added to the list of the New Testament manuscripts by Bengel. Scrivener and Gregory dated the manuscript to the 10th-century.[3] Gregory saw it in 1880 and 1887.[2]
The manuscript is sporadically cited in the critical editions of the Greek New Testament (UBS3).[6]
Currently the codex is located in the Bavarian State Library (Gr. 383) in München.[1]
