Minuscule 344 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), ε 1007 (Soden),[1] is a Greek minuscule manuscript of the New Testament, on parchment. Paleographically it has been assigned to the 10th century.[2] It has marginalia.

Description

The codex contains the text of the four Gospels on 327 parchment leaves (16.4 cm by 12.1 cm)[2] with lacunae (Luke 13:21-16:23; 21:12-27; 22:12-23; 23:45-John 21:12). The lacking texts were supplied in the 16th century on paper.[3] It is written in one column per page, in 19 lines per page.[2]

The text is divided according to the κεφαλαια (chapters), whose numbers are given at the margin, with their τιτλοι (titles of chapters) at the top. There is also a division according to the Ammonian Sections (in Mark 237 Sections, the last in 16:14), without references to the Eusebian Canons (written below Ammonian Section numbers).[3]

It contains the Epistula ad Carpianum (added later), tables of the κεφαλαια (tables of contents) before each Gospel, Synaxarion (later hand), and subscriptions at the end of each Gospel.[3]

Text

The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Aland placed it in Category V.[4] According to the Claremont Profile Method it represents the textual family K^x in Luke 1 and Luke 20, and belongs to the textual cluster Ω. In Luke 10 no profile was made.[5]

It does not contain the text of Matthew 16:2b–3 (signs of the times) and John 21:25.[3]

History

The manuscript was examined by Scholz (Matthew and John) and Burgon. It was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scholz (1794-1852).[6] C. R. Gregory saw it in 1886.[3]

The manuscript is currently housed at the Biblioteca Ambrosiana (G. 16 sup.) in Milan.[2]

gollark: I'd prefer "prizes spread out across market users" to "prizes given out at random".

gollark: Oh, it's just that xenowyrms are cool.

gollark: I assume prices would just oscillate weirdly for a few weeks.

gollark: I doubt it.
