Minuscule 346 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), ε 226 (Soden),[1] is a Greek minuscule manuscript of the New Testament, on parchment. Paleographically it has been assigned to the 12th century.[2] It has marginalia.

Description

The codex contains a complete text of the four Gospels on 168 parchment leaves (22.3 cm by 16.5 cm) with one Lacuna (John 3:26-7:52).[2] It contains also liturgical book with hagiographies: Synaxarion and Menologion.[3]

The text is written in one column per page, in 31-32 lines per page.[2] According to F. H. A. Scrivener it was carelessly written.[4]

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 (in Mark 234 Sections - the last in 16:9), whose numbers are given at the margin, but without references to the Eusebian Canons.[3]

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

Text

The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Caesarean text-type. Aland placed it in Category III.[5]

It is a member of the textual family f¹³.[3] According to the Claremont Profile Method it belongs to the f ¹³ as a core member.[6]

It has many unusual readings (e.g. Matt 1:16 — ω μνηστευθεισα παρθενος Μαριαμ εγεννησεν Ιησουν τον λεγομενον χριστον).[4]

History

Gregory dated the manuscript to the 12th century.[3] Currently it is dated by the INTF to the 12th century.[2]

The manuscript was bought in 1606 at "Callipoli in Salentinis" (Calabria).[3] The manuscript was examined by Scholz and Burgon. It was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scholz (1794-1852).[7] Text of the codex was collated by Abbott and edited by Ferrar.[8] C. R. Gregory saw it in 1886.[3]

The manuscript is currently housed at the Biblioteca Ambrosiana (S. 23 sup.) in Milan.[2]
