Description

The codex contains the text of the New Testament except Book of Revelation on 268 parchment leaves (size 32.8 cm by 23.1 cm), with only one lacuna (Hebrews 12:17-13:25). The text is written in one column per page, 23 lines per page.[5] The vellum is fine and white.[6]

The leaves 225-226 were supplied by a later hand on paper (flyleaves). It has decorated headpieces and initial letters at the beginning of each Gospel (folios 3, 63, 101, 163). The titles, initials, and capital letters in gold (chrysography).[3]

The text is divided according to the κεφαλαια (chapters), whose numbers are given at the margin. It does not contain the τιτλοι (titles of chapters). The text of the Gospels has no additional division according to the smaller Ammonian Sections, with references to the Eusebian Canons.[5]

It contains tables of the κεφαλαια before each book, lectionary markings at the margin (for liturgical use), αναγνωσεις (lessons) are marked at the beginning and end, Synaxarion (table of lessons beginning at Easter) on folios 213-217v, Menologion (table of lessons beginning at 1 September) on folios 218-222v, subscriptions at the end of each book, στιχοι, and scholia.[4] Lacuna in Hebrews 12:17-13:25 was supplemented by a later hand on paper.[5]

The order of books: Gospels, Acts, Catholic epistles, and the Pauline epistles (Philemon, Hebrews).[5]

There are only 4 instances of N ephelkystikon, 37 occurrences of the error of itacism. The breathings and accents are complete and regular. Iota adscriptum never occurs, iota subscriptum 13 times in Matthew.[7]

There are only a few corrections made by a later hand.[7]

Text

Folio 163, the first page of John

The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Hermann von Soden classified it to the textual family Kr.[8] Kurt Aland placed it in Category V.[9] According to the Claremont Profile Method it represents the textual family Family Kr in Luke 1, Luke 10, and Luke 20 as perfect member of the family.[8] Textually it is close to the codex 201. In some cases it supports readings of the codices Vaticanus, Ephraemi Rescriptus, Bezae, Cyprius, and Regius.[7]

It has several unique readings in Matthew 6:1; 9:5; 20:29; 26:65; Luke 1:11; 16:3; 17:6; John 14:30. Two rare readings from Luke 9:48 and John 1:28 are supported by the Codex Wordsworth and 201.[10]

Matthew 9:5 αμαρτιαι ] αμαρτιαι σου

History

According to the colophon (on folio 222 verso) the manuscript was written by one Joasaph in 4 June 1366 CE (θεου το δωρον και πονος ιωασαφ ετει ςωοδ), in monastery of the Theotokos ton Hodegon, in Constantinople.[6][3]

It once belonged to Charles Burney, along with codices 481, 482, 484, 485, and 184.[5] It was purchased to the British Museum in 1818.[4]

The manuscript was examined and collated by Scrivener, who published its text in 1852.[5] The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scrivener.

It is currently housed at the British Library (Burney 18, 222 fol.) in London.[2]
