History

The manuscript is dated by the INTF to the 10th century.[3]

Formerly the manuscript belonged to Maria, Queen of Hungary, who obtained it from John Diassorin.[4] Maria presented the manuscript to Philip II.[2]

Emmanuel Miller who examined all manuscripts housed in the Escorial library did not describe this manuscript.[5]

It was examined by Daniel Gotthilf Moldenhawer and Andreas Birch.[2] Moldenhawer was allowed to see it for a few hours and collated only 15 lessons (for Andreas Birch).[4]

The manuscript is not cited in the critical editions of the Greek New Testament (UBS3).[6]

Currently the codex is located in the Escorial (Ψ. I. 14) in San Lorenzo de El Escorial.[1]
