Description

The codex contains the text of the Gospel of Luke (11:2-24:53); John 1:1-7:1; 7:18-20:30; 21:11-25 on 110 leaves (size 27.3 cm by 20.5 cm) with a commentary. The text is written in one column per page, 20 lines per page. [2] The initial letters are written in red. [3]

The text is divided according to the κεφαλαια (chapters), whose numbers of at the margin. There is also a division according to the Ammonian Sections (later hand), (no references to the Eusebian Canons). [4]

It contains full scholia neatly written on the margin, synaxaria, and Menologion. [4]

Text

The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Aland placed it in Category V. [5] It was not examined by the Claremont Profile Method. [6]

It contains the Pericope Adulterae (John 7:53-8:11) but with questionable scholion on the margin: ταυτα μετα και του κεφαλαιου της μοιχαλιδος. Εν τισι των αντιγραφων ωβελισται. [3]

In John 8:8 it has textual variant ενος εκαστου αυτων τας αμαρτιας (sins of every one of them), as in Codex Nanianus, 73, 331, 413, Minuscule 700, and some other manuscripts. [3]

History

Sir George Wheler brought the manuscript from Constantinople to England in 1676 (together with the codex 68 and 3). [3]

It was examined by Mill (as Wheeleri 2), and Nicoll (John 5-7 for Scholz). [4] C. R. Gregory saw it in 1883. [3]

It is owned by Lincoln College, Oxford, on deposit with the Bodleian Library as Lincoln College MS. Gr. 16. [2]
