Description
The codex contains the text of the four Gospels on 300 thick parchment leaves (size 28.6 cm by 21.5 cm),[2] with a commentary.[3] The text is written in one column per page, 19 lines per page (size of column 14.5 by 11.8 cm).[4]
The text is divided according to the Script error: No such module "Lang". (chapters), whose numbers are given at the margin, and their Script error: No such module "Lang". (titles of chapters) at the top of the pages. There is also another division according to the smaller Ammonian Sections (Mark 233 – 16:8; in a commentary 234 – 16:9). There are no references to the Eusebian Canons.[4]
It contains tables of the Script error: No such module "Lang". (tables of contents) before each Gospel, synaxaria, Menologion, and pictures.[4] Victor's commentary to Mark appears.[4]
Text
The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Aland placed it in Category V.[5]
According to the Claremont Profile Method it represents textual family Kx in Luke 1 and Luke 10. In Luke 20 it has a mixture of the Byzantine text-types. It creates textual cluster 137.[6]
History
At the end we read: κσ φραγκισκος ακκιδας ευγενες κολασσευς... ρωμη ηγαγε το παρον βιβλιον ετει απο αδαμ ζφω [A.D. 1583], μηνι ιουλιω, ινδ. ια.[3] This means the manuscript was brought to Rome in 1583.[4]
It was partially examined by Birch (about 1782). C. R. Gregory saw the manuscript in 1886.[4]
It is currently housed at the Vatican Library (Vat. gr. 756), at Rome.[2]
