Minuscule 144 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), ε 1001 (Soden), is a Greek minuscule manuscript of the New Testament, on parchment leaves. Paleographically it had been assigned to the 10th century.[1] Formerly it was dated to the 11th century (Scrivener). Gregory hesitated in that case (10th or 11th century).
