History[edit]

According to the colophon the manuscript was written in 1009 by Kiryllos Skythopulos.[5] Currently the manuscript is dated by the INTF to the 11th century.[4]

It was bought by Robert Curzon in 1834 in the monastery of Saba.[5] C. R. Gregory saw it in 1883.[5] Facsimile was published in Parham Catalogue.[7]

The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scrivener (216a, 234p)[7] and Gregory (226a, 281p).[5] In 1908 Gregory gave the number 910 to it.[1]

It is currently housed in the British Library (Add MS 39598) in London.[3][4]
