Description
The codex contains the text of the four Gospels on 201 parchment leaves (size 22 cm by 17 cm),[2] with two lacunae at the end (John 19:35-20:31; 21:17-21).[3]
The text is written in one column per page, 26 lines per page.[2][4]
The text of the Gospels is divided according to the small Ammonian Sections, whose numbers are given at the margin, without references to the Eusebian Canons, but it has a Harmony to the four Gospels in the bottom margin. There is no another system division in this manuscript (according to the κεφαλαια).[5] It also has lectionary markings in 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.[6] Kurt Aland placed the Greek text of the codex in Category V.[7]
According to the Claremont Profile Method it represents the textual family Kx in Luke 1, and Luke 20. In Luke 10 it has a mixture of the Byzantine families.[6]
It lacks the text of Matthew 16:2b–3 (Signs of the times).[5]
