The codex contains the text of the whole New Testament on 186 parchment leaves (size ) with some lacunae (Matthew 1:1-2:12; Mark 5:2-6:10; Acts 1:1-5:2; James 1:1-5:4; Jude; Romans 1:1-4:9; 2 Thess 2:14-3:18; 1 Timothy 1:1-13; 6:19-21; 2 Timothy 1:1-2:19). Written in one column per page, 35 lines per page, in very small hand.[2] It contains prolegomena (later hand), Eusebian tables, τιτλοι, Ammonian Sections, Eusebian Canons, and Euthalian apparatus.[3] In Acts τιτλοι and lectionary markings, prolegomena to every epistle.[2]
The order of books: Gospels, Acts, Catholic epistles, Pauline epistles, and Apocalypse. The order of Gospels: Matthew, Luke, Mark, John (as in codex 392).[3]
Text
The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Aland placed it in Category V.[4] It is close to Codex Campianus.[5]
History
The manuscript was written by Gerasimus.[2] It was bought in 1848 by Thomas Rodd.[3] The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scrivener. It was examined by Bloomfield.[3] Scrivener thoroughly examined and collated its text.[6]
It is currently housed at the British Library (Additional Manuscripts, 17469) in London.[1]
