The order of books is usual: Gospels, Acts, Catholic epistles, and Pauline epistles.^[2] The pericope John 7:53-8:11 is omitted.^[3]

Text

The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Aland placed it in Category V.^[4] It contains many important various readings, e.g. it countenances codices Sinaiticus, Vaticanus, and Regius in Luke 11:2.4.^[2] It close textually to the codices 53 and 902.^[5]
