Description

The codex contains the text of the Gospel of Mark and Gospel of Luke on 96 parchment leaves (size 20.3 cm by 15.5 cm) with a large lacuna at the end of Luke (Luke 17:36-fin.). The text is written in one column per page, 21 lines per page.[2]

The text is divided according to the Ammonian Sections, whose numbers are given at the margin, with references to the Eusebian Canons. There is also a lectionary markings at the margin (for liturgical use).[3]

Text

The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Hermann von Soden included it to the textual family Kx.[4] Aland placed it in Category V.[5] According to the Claremont Profile Method it belongs to the textual family Kx in Luke 1 and Luke 10. In Luke 20 no profile was made because of defect of the codex.[4]

History

The manuscript was bought in Athens in 1884 along with the codex 573. It was examined by William Charles Braithwaite. C. R. Gregory did not see it.[3]

It is currently housed at the Selly Oak College (Braithwaite 1) in Birmingham.[2]
