Description
The codex contains the text of the four Gospels, with a commentary, on 307 paper leaves (size 37.5 cm by 26.5 cm).[3] The text is written in one column per page, 47 lines per page.[3][4] The Gospels follow in an unusual order: Matthew, John, Mark, Luke (as 594).[5]
The text of the Gospels is divided according to the κεφαλαια (chapters), whose numbers are given at the margin, and their τιτλοι (titles) at the top of the pages.[5] It contains Prolegomena, tables of κεφαλαια (tables of contents) before each Gospel, lectionary markings at the margin (for liturgical use), and subscriptions at the end of each Gospel.[5]
Folios 1-63 contain a commentary to the Prophets by Theophylact of Ohrid.[5]
It contains some additional non-biblical matter at the end.[5]
Text
The Greek text of the codex is unknown. Kurt Aland did not place it in any Category.[6]
It was not examined according to the Claremont Profile Method.[7]
History
According to C. R. Gregory it was written in the 14th or 15th century. Currently the manuscript is dated by the INTF to the 14th century.[4] The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scrivener (888e)[8] and Gregory (888e).[5][2] Gregory saw it in 1886.[5]
It is not cited in critical editions of the Greek New Testament (UBS4,[9] NA28[10]). Currently the manuscript is housed at the Biblioteca Marciana (Gr. Z. 26 (340)), in Venice.[3][4]
