Description
History
It was examined by Scholz. Constantin von Tischendorf seems to have confused Lectionary 13 and 17 in his Novum Testamentum, Prolegomena (7th edition, p. CCXVI).[3]
F. H. A. Scrivener dated the manuscript to the 12th-century,[3] C. R. Gregory to the 9th century.[2]
It was added to the list of the New Testament manuscripts by Johann Jakob Wettstein.[4] It was examined and described by Scholz and Paulin Martin.[5] Gregory saw it in 1884.[2]
The manuscript is sporadically cited in the critical editions of the Greek New Testament (UBS3).[6]
Currently the codex is located in the Bibliothèque nationale de France (Gr. 279) in Paris.[1]
