Contents

Description

The codex contains the entire New Testament with only one lacunae (Matthew 1:23-2:16). The books follow in this rather strange order: Gospels, Acts, Catholic epistles, Revelation of John, Pauline epistles. Written in one column per page, 29-33 lines per page.[1] It contains tables of κεφαλαια, Eusebian tables, κεφαλαια, τιτλοι, Ammonian Sections, Eusebian Canons, Euthalian apparatus.[2]

There are marginal commentaries on the Gospels (Chrystostomos), Acts and Epistles, only the Book of Revelation does not have commentaries. The manuscript also contains The Shepherd of Hermas. The Eusebian Canons presented, added by a different, probably later hand. It contains Euthalian apparatus.[2]

Text

The Greek text of the codex, is a representative of the Byzantine text-type with allien readings. Streeter remarked some relations between the codex and the various "Caesarean" witnesses, especially in the Gospel of Mark, but concenced it is only a tertiary witness to the type. But there are more of the Alexandrian readings than Caesarean. The manuscript together with M (021), 7, 27, 71, 115, 160, 179, 185, 267, 349, 517, 659, 692, 827, 945, 954, 990, 1010, 1082, 1188, 1194, 1207, 1223, 1391, 1402, 1606, 1675, 2191 and other manuscripts belongs to the Family 1424 (von Soden's I φ group). The whole Family 1424 deserves a more textual study than it received.[3] Aland placed it in Category V, but Gospel of Mark in Category III.[1]

History

It was written by a monk named Sabas. Formerly it was held in the monastery Drama in Kosinitza. (formerly Turkey, today Greece).[2] The codex was taken after the Balkan Wars of 1912-1913 from Kosinitza to western Europe.[4] It was brought by Franklin Gruber to Chicago.[5] Lake photographed the codex in 1902.[2]

Currently the codex is located in the Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago, as a part of the Gruber Collection (Gruber Ms. 152).[1]
