Description[edit]
The codex contains the complete text of the four Gospels, on 373 cotton paper leaves (size 23.7 cm by 16 cm), with a commentary.[3] The leaves are arranged in quarto (four leaves in quire).[4] It has ornamented headpieces.[1]
The text is written in one column per page, 32 lines per page.[3][5]
It contains a commentary of Theophylact.[6]
Text[edit]
The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Aland placed it in Category V.[7]
It was not examined according to the Claremont Profile Method.[8]
History[edit]
Emmanuel Miller and C. R. Gregory dated the manuscript to the 14th century.[6] It is presently assigned to the 14th century on palaeographic grounds by the Institute for New Testament Textual Research.[3][5]
The manuscript was briefly described by Emmanuel Miller in 1848.[4] It was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Gregory (818e).[6]
The manuscript is now housed in El Escorial (Ψ. III, 13).[3][5]
