Text edit
The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine. Hermann von Soden classified it to the textual family K1.[6] Kurt Aland did not place it in any Category.[7] According to the Claremont Profile Method it belongs to the textual family Kx in Luke 1, Luke 10 and Luke 20.[6]
History edit
According to the colophon it was written in 1133. Currently the manuscript is dated by the Institute for New Testament Textual Research (INTF) to the 13th century.[4] It was written by scribe named Theoklistus.[5] The codex 927 was seen by Gregory at the Dionysiou monastery (8), in Mount Athos.[5] 279 folios of the manuscript are housed at the J. Paul Getty Museum (Ludw. II 4) Malibu, California, and one folio is housed at the Paul Kanellopoulos Museum in Athens.[3][4] The leaf from Athens used to be cataloged as minuscule 2618.[3]
The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by C. R. Gregory (927e).[5] It was not on the Frederick Henry Ambrose Scrivener's list, but it was added to his list by Edward Miller in the 4th edition of A Plain Introduction to the Criticism of the New Testament.[8]
It is not cited in the critical editions of the Greek New Testament (UBS4,[9] NA28[10]).
