Description edit

The codex contains the text of the four Gospels on 173 parchment leaves (17.1 cm by 14 cm). It is written in two columns per page, in 26 lines per page.[2]

The text is divided according to the κεφαλαια (chapters), whose numbers are given at the margin, with their τιτλοι (titles of chapters) at the top of the pages. There is also a division according to the smaller Ammonian Sections (in Mark 233 Sections, the last in 16:8), with references to the Eusebian Canons (written below Ammonian Section numbers).[3]

It contains the Eusebian Canon tables, tables of the κεφαλαια (tables of contents) before each Gospel, and pictures.[3]

Text edit

The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Hermann von Soden classified it to the textual family Kx.[4] Aland placed it in Category V.[5]

According to the Claremont Profile Method it represents textual family Kx in Luke 1, Luke 10, and Luke 20. It belongs also to the cluster 352.[4]

The manuscript is currently housed at the Vatican Library (Vat. gr. 1533) in Rome.[2]
