Description
[edit | edit source]The codex contains the text of the Acts of the Apostles, Pauline epistles, and Catholic epistles on 397 leaves (size 26.5 cm by 17 cm), with some lacunae (Acts 1:1-12:3; 13:5-15(?); 2 John-Jude).[2] The text is written in 1 column per page, 20 lines per page. The order of books: Acts of the Apostles, Catholic epistles, and Pauline epistles.[3] It has some additional matter, like Journeys of Paul (as Minuscule 102, 216, 256, 468, 614, 665, 909, 912).[3]
The text is divided according to the κεφαλαια (chapters), whose numbers are given at the margin.[3]
It contains Prolegomena, tables of the κεφαλαια (tables of contents) before each book, lectionary markings at the margin, Synaxarion, and Menologion, and subscriptions at the end of each book.[3]
2 John, 3 John, and Epistle Jude were supplied in the 14th century.[2]
Text
[edit | edit source]The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Caesarean text-type in the Catholic epistles and the Byzantine text-type in rest of the books of the codex. Aland placed it in Category III in the Catholic epistles, and in Category V in rest of books.[4]
In the Pauline epistles text is close to the codices 429, 522, 1891, and 2815.
In 2 Timothy 2:14 it reads Χριστου (of Christ) for θεοῦ (of God) along with 429, 1758.[5]
History
[edit | edit source]The manuscript was brought by Carlyle from a Greek island to England (along with minuscule 470).[6]
It was examined and described by Scrivener.[3]
Formerly it was assigned by 214a and 270p. In 1908 C. R. Gregory gave number 206 for it.[1]
Formerly it was housed at the Lambeth Palace.[3] It is currently housed at the Antiquariat Christi (1182), in London.[2]
