Minuscule 83 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), ε 1218 (Soden),[1] is a Greek minuscule manuscript of the New Testament, on parchment leaves. Palaeographically it has been assigned to the 11th century.[2] It was adapted for liturgical use. It has marginalia.
Description
[edit | edit source]The codex contains the complete text of the four Gospels, with a commentary, on 321 leaves (size 21.4 cm by 16.5 cm). The text is written stichometrically in one column per page, 20-21 lines per page (size of text 13.6 by 9.5 cm),[2][3] in beautiful letters.[4]
The text is divided according to the κεφαλαια (chapters), whose numbers are given at the margin, but there is no τιτλοι.[3]
It contains prolegomena, lists of the κεφαλαια (lists of contents) before every Gospel, lectionary markings at the margin (for liturgical use), αναγνωσεις (lessons), synaxaria, Menologion, subscriptions at the end of each Gospel, and numbers of στιχοι.[3][4]
The passage of John 7:53-8:11 is marked with an obelus (÷).[3]
Text
[edit | edit source]The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Aland placed it in Category V.[5] Hermann von Soden classified it to the textual family Kr.[6] According to the Claremont Profile Method it belongs to the textual family Kr in Luke 1, 10, and 20.[6]
History
