Description
The codex contains the text of the Gospels on 317 parchment leaves (size ), with only one lacunae (John 11:18-41). Written in one column per page, 26 lines per page.[3] It contains tables of κεφαλαια, κεφαλαια, τιτλοι, Ammonian Sections, (not Eusebian Canons), lectionary markings, and Synaxarion (added by a later hand on paper).[3][2]
Text
The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Aland placed it in Category V.[4]
History
The manuscript formerly was held at the Pantokratoros monastery at Mount Athos. It was brought to England and belonged to Richard Bentley (as Minuscule 489), who presented it to the Trinity College.[3][2]
The manuscript was examined and collated by Scrivener, who published its text in 1852.[3] The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scrivener.
It is currently housed at the Trinity College (B. X. 17) in Cambridge.[1]
