List of New Testament minuscules (2001–)

From Textus Receptus

A New Testament minuscule is a copy of a portion of the New Testament written in a small, cursive Greek script (developed from Uncial).^[1]^[2] Most of the minuscules are still written on parchment. Paper was used since the 12th century. Now we have 2907 minuscule codices catalogued by the Institute for New Testament Textual Research (INTF) in Münster.^[3]

New Testament minuscules are distinct from:

New Testament papyri — written on papyrus and more ancient than minuscules;
New Testament uncials — written in uncial script (i.e. all capital letters) also more ancient than minuscules; and,
List of New Testament lectionaries — usually written minuscule (but some in uncial) letters and generally contemporary.

Minuscules 2001-2500

The numbers (#) are the now standard system of Caspar René Gregory.
Dates are estimated to the nearest 100 year increment.
Content generally only describes sections of the New Testament: Gospels (Gosp), The Acts of the Apostles (Acts), Pauline epistles (Paul), and so on. Sometimes the surviving portion of a codex is so limited that specific books, chapters or even verses can be indicated. Linked articles, where they exist, generally specify content in detail, by verse.
