Description

The codex contains the text of the four Gospels on 132 thick parchment leaves (size 24.6 cm by 19 cm),[2] with three lacunae (Matthew 1:1-2:1; John 1:1-27; 8:47-21:25).[3]

The text is written in two columns per page, in 30 lines per page (size of text 18.2 cm by 6.5 cm),[2] in brown-red ink, the capital letters in red.[3]

The text is divided according to the κεφαλαια (chapters), whose numbers are given at the margin, and their τιτλοι (titles) at the top of the pages. There is also a division according to the Ammonian Sections, with references to the Eusebian Canons (written below Ammonian Section numbers).[3]

It contains tables of the κεφαλαια (tables of contents) before each Gospel, lectionary markings at the margin for liturgical use, and subscriptions at the end of each of the Gospels. In subscriptions are given numbers of ρηματα and numbers of στιχοι.[3]

Text

The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Caesarean text-type. The manuscript is a member of textual Family 13. Kurt Aland did not place it in any Category.[4] According to the Claremont Profile Method it represents textual group Λ in Luke 1, Luke 10, and Luke 20.[5]

History

The manuscript was written by the monk Constantine "tabernis habitante", "cum praessent praefecturae Georgilas dux Calabriae".[3][6] The codex, together with 173, 175, 176, and 177, was brought from the Library of the Basilian monks.[6]

It was examined by Bianchini, Birch (about 1782), Scholz, J. Rendel Harris, and Ferrar. C. R. Gregory saw it in 1886.[3]

It is currently housed at the Vatican Library (Vat. gr. 2002), at Rome.[2]

gollark: Kristforge is for GPUs. You presumably have one of those.
gollark: I think what would be helpful is better cross-server integration i.e. server-to-server networking and chat relays, sort of thing.
gollark: Looking at Terra's post, I kind of agree with their assessment that there's not really a hugely active player base for CC-focused servers, but the "plan" is unhelpful and kind of bad.
gollark: Terra is never wrong. All glory to Terra.
gollark: Which is yet another problem of our system - the constituency borders could affect the election a *lot* if they got tweaked and yet are basically arbitrary.
