'''Minuscule 579''' (in the [[Biblical manuscript#Gregory-Aland|Gregory-Aland]] numbering), ε 376 ([[Biblical manuscript#Von Soden|von Soden]]), is a [[Greek language|Greek]] [[Lower case|minuscule]] [[manuscript]] of the [[New Testament]], on parchment leaves. [[Paleography|Paleographically]] it had been assigned to the 13th century.[1] Formerly it was labelled as 80e (Scrivener).

== Description ==

The codex contains complete text of the four [[Gospel]]s with some [[Lacuna (manuscripts)|lacunae]] ([[Gospel of Mark|Mark]] 3:28-4:8; [[Gospel of John|John]] 20:15-21:25) on 152 leaves (size 23.3 cm by 16.2 cm). Written in one column per page, 28-39 lines per page.[1] It contains prolegomena, lists of κεφαλαια, κεφαλαια, and τιτλοι. [[Matthew 16:2b-3]] placed after verse 9. It contains two endings of the Gospel of Mark.[2] It has the same system of chapter divisions, as [[Codex Vaticanus Graecus 1209]] and [[Codex Zacynthius]].

It has two [[Mark 16#Hypothesis About the Ending|endings to the Gospel of Mark]] (as in codices [[Codex Athous Lavrensis|Ψ]], [[Uncial 099|099]], [[Uncial 0112|0112]], [[Minuscule 274|274mg]], and [[Lectionary 1602|'''ℓ''' ''1602'']]).[3]

The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the [[Alexandrian text-type]] in Mark and [[Gospel of Luke|Luke]]. [[Kurt Aland|Aland]] placed it in [[Categories of New Testament manuscripts#Category II|Category II]] in Mark and Luke.[4] In Matthew its text belongs to the late [[Byzantine text-type|Byzantine]] group.[5]
