Description

The codex contains the text of the Gospel of John on 808 parchment leaves (31 by 23.5 cm).[1] Written in 1 columne per page, 30 lines per page.[1] The text of the Gospel of John is surrounded by a commentary (catena).[2]

The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type (according to Mark). Aland did not list it to any Category.[3]

It is difficult to date palaeographically.

History

Formerly the manuscript was held at the Pantokrator monastery at Athos peninsula (as codex 74). It was brought to Moscow, by the monk Arsenius, on the suggestion of the Patriarch Nikon, in the reign of Alexei Mikhailovich Romanov (1645-1676). [4] It was examined by Matthaei and Treu.

The manuscript is currently housed at the State Historical Museum (V. 90, S. 93) at Moscow.[1]
