Description
The codex contains complete text of the four Gospels on 238 leaves (size 19.6 cm by 14.5 cm) with lacunae. Written in one column per page, 23 lines per page.[1][2] It has τιτλοι, κεφαλαια, the Ammonian Sections, but not the Eusebian Canons.[3] It was carelessly written, and exhibits no less than 81 omissions by "homoioteleuton".[3]
It has some unusual textual variants. In Matthew 23:35 phrase υιου βαραχιου (son of Barachi'ah) is omitted; this omission is supported only by Codex Sinaiticus, three Evangelistaria (ℓ 6, ℓ 13, and ℓ 185), and Eusebius.[4]
History
The manuscript once belonged to the House of Friars Minor at Oxford. In 1567 Thomas Hatcher gave it to Gonville and Caius College, Cambridge (not 1867, as Scrivener wrote).[5] It was examined by Mill, Wettstein, minutely collated by Scrivener in 1860.[3] It is currently housed in at the Gonville and Caius College (Ms 403/412), at Cambridge.[1]
