Text
The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Aland placed it in Category V.[4] Textually it is close to the manuscripts 16, 119, 330, 491, 578, 693, 1528, and 1588.[5] They create Group 16 with following profile:
- Luke 1: 8, (9), 13, 23, 28, 34, 37, 43.
- Luke 10: 3, 7, 15, 19, 23, (25), 58, 63.
- Luke 20: 4, 13, 19, 50, 51, 54, 55, 62, 65.[5] Codex 217 forms a pair with codex 578 in Luke 1 and 10. They lack readings 13 and 23 and add 48 in Luke 1, and lacks 20 in Luke 20.[5]
History
The manuscript was given in 1478 by Peter de Montagnana to the monastery of St. John, in Viridario, at Padua. It was examined by Birch and Burgon.[2]
It is currently housed at the Biblioteca Marciana (Gr. I,3 (944)), at Venice.[1]
