Description
The codex contains a complete text of the four Gospels on 267 parchment leaves (26 cm by 19 cm). It was written in one column per page, 16-31 lines per page.<ref name = Aland/>
The letters and words are not separated from one another (scriptio-continua). The uncial letters of this codex are large, upright, and compressed. In some of the pages letters are very large. It contains τιτλοι, κεφαλαια (added by a later hand), στιχοι, and Menologion. The Ammonian Sections presented, but the Eusebian Canons are absent. Itacisms is very often.
The Greek text of this codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type.<ref>Bruce M. Metzger, Bart D. Ehrman, The Text of the New Testament: Its Transmission, Corruption, and Restoration, Oxford University Press, 2005, p. 77. </ref> Together with Codex Petropolitanus belongs to the family Π, which is in close relationship to the Codex Alexandrinus. Kurt Aland placed it in Category V.<ref name=Aland/> The text of the codex is cited in NA27.
In Mark 10:19 — phrase μη αποστερησης omitted, as in codices B (added by second corrector), W, Ψ, f1, f13, 28, 700, 1010, 1079, 1242, 1546, 2148, ℓ 10, ℓ 950, ℓ 1642, ℓ 1761, syrs, arm, geo.<ref>UBS3, p. 165. </ref> This omission is typical for the manuscript of the Alexandrian and Caesarean text-type.
In Luke 9:55-56 it has interpolation:
- στραφεις δε επετιμησεν αυτοις και ειπεν, Ουκ οιδατε ποιου πνευματος εστε υμεις; ο γαρ υιος του ανθρωπου ουκ ηλθεν ψυχας ανθρωπων απολεσαι αλλα σωσαι (but He turned and rebuked them and He said: "You do not know what manner of spirit you are of; for the Son of man came not to destroy men's lives but to save them) — as in codices: Π 1079 1242 1546 (f1 omit γαρ) (Θ f13 omit υμεις and γαρ)
