Description
The codex contains the text of the Gospel of Luke and Gospel of John, with a commentary, on 256 parchment leaves (size 35.3 cm by 26.5 cm),[3] with lacuna in Luke 1:1-3:1.[4] The text is written in one column per page, 30 lines per page.[3][5] The commentary is of Theophylact of Ohrid.[4][6] It was altered by a later hand (biblical text and a commentary).[1]
Text
The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Hermann von Soden classified it to the textual family Iβ.[7] It means, it has some textual affinities to 1216 and minuscule 16.[8] Kurt Aland placed it in Category V.[9]
According to the Claremont Profile Method it represents the textual family Kx in Luke 10. In Luke 20 it belongs to the textual family of Lake's group, as a weak member. In Luke 1 no profile was made, because the manuscript is defective.[7]
