Description

The codex contains a complete text of the four Gospels on 410 parchment leaves (16.5 cm by 12.5 cm), in octavo (8 leaves in quire), with a Commentary of Theophylact. The text is written in one column per page, in 18 lines per page.[2]

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

It contains the Epistula ad Carpianum, the Eusebian tables, tables of the κεφαλαια (tables of contents) before each Gospel, lectionary markings at the margin (added by a later hand), and Synaxarion (probably added by a later hand).[3]

Text

The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Hermann von Soden classified it to the textual family K1.[4] Aland placed it in Category V.[5] According to the Claremont Profile Method it represents family Kx in Luke 1, Luke 10, and Luke 20.[4]
