Description

The codex contains the text of the four Gospels on 212 parchment leaves (32.9 cm by 25 cm). The text is written in two columns per page, in 27 lines.[2]

The text is divided according to the κεφαλαια (chapters), whose numbers are given at the margin, and some τιτλοι (titles of chapters) at the top of the pages. The Ammonian Sections and references to the Eusebian Canons to Gospel of Luke and Gospel of John were added by a later hand.[3]

It contains lists of the κεφαλαια (tables of contents) before each Gospel, and subscriptions at the end of each Gospel.[3]

It has the famous Jerusalem Colophon ("from the ancient manuscripts of Jerusalem").
