History

[edit]

Gregory and Scrivener dated the manuscript to the 11th or 12th century.[1] It has been assigned by the Institute for New Testament Textual Research (INTF) to the 12th century.[3][4]

It was bought from Quaritch for the university in 1876.[1]

The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scrivener (294e)[2] and Caspar René Gregory (number 308e).[1] It was examined by Hort. Gregory saw it in 1883.[1]

The codex is housed at the Cambridge University Library (MS Add.1840) in Cambridge.[3][4]
