Contents

Description

The codex contains a small part of the Mark 1:31-2:16; Luke 1:20-31.64-79; 2:24-48, on 7 parchment leaves (29.5 cm by 21.3 cm). It is written in two columns per page, 22 lines per page, in large uncial letters. The writing is similar to Codex Sangallensis 48 but bigger. It has not breathings and accents.[2]

It is a palimpsest, the upper text has Latin Vulgate.[1] The leaves were washed to make a palimpsest, and the writing erased in parts by a knife.[2]

The Greek text of this codex is a representative of the mixed text-type, with a strong element of the Byzantine text-type. Aland placed it in Category III.[1]

History

The manuscript was examined by Tischendorf.[3]

Four leaves of the codex are housed at the Abbey library of Saint Gall (18, fol. 143-146; 45, fol. 1-2) in St. Gallen, and three leaves in Zürich (Zentralbibliothek, C 57, fol. 5, 74, 93, 135).[1]
