Description
The codex contains the text of the four Gospels on 157 parchment leaves (size ) with some lacunae (Luke 9:14-17:3; 21:15-24:53; John 1:1-18). Some texts were supplemented by a later hand (Matthew 1:1-20; Mark 1:1-16; Luke 1:1-20; John 1:38-4:5). Written in one column per page, 23 lines per page.[2] It contains tables of κεφαλαια, κεφαλαια, some τιτλοι, Ammonian Sections (Mark 233 - 16:19), (not Eusebian Canons), and lectionary markings.[3][2]
It lacks the Pericope Adultera (John 7:53-8:11) and phrase εγω ουπω αναβαινω εις την εορτην ταυτην in John 7:8.[3] The Pericope Adultera was added by a later hand.[3]
Text
The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Aland placed it in Category V.[4] It belongs to the textual family Kx.[5]
History
The manuscript came from Patmos. In 1834 Borrell presented it to his friend, English chaplain in Smyrna, F. V. J. Arundell. Bloomfield bought it in an auction in 1850.[3]
Arundell compares it with Codex Ebnerianus, which it very slightly resembles, being larger and far less elegant.[6] The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scrivener. It was examined by Bloomfield, Scrivener, and Gregory.[3]
It is currently housed at the British Library (Additional Manuscripts, 18211) in London.[1]
