Text
The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Kurt Aland the Greek text of the codex placed in Category V.[7] It was not examined by the Claremont Profile Method.[8] Robert Devreesse suggested ("Chaînes Exégétiques Grecques," Dictionnaire de la Bible, Supplément 1 (1928)) that 868 was copied from 381.
History
F. H. A. Scrivener and C. R. Gregory dated the manuscript to the 17th century.[6] Currently the manuscript is dated by the INTF to the 17th century.[4]
Probably it was rewritten from minuscule 381.[5]
The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scrivener (683e)[6] and Gregory (868e). Gregory saw it in 1886.[5]
Currently the manuscript is housed at the Vatican Library (Gr. 1933), in Rome.[3][4]
