Text
[edit]The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Hermann von Soden classified it to the textual family Kr.[4] Aland placed it in Category V.[5] According to the Claremont Profile Method it represents to the textual family Kr in Luke 1 and Luke 20. In Luke 10 no profile was made. It is weak member of textual cluster 20.[4]
The text of the Pericope Adulterae (John 7:53-8:11) is marked by an obelus.[3]
History
[edit]The manuscript once belonged to Teller's. It was presented by Augustin Justinian to Giovanni Maria Catanaeo from Navara († 1529). It was used by Kuster's, who designated it as Paris 1.[6] It was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scholz (1794-1852).[7] It was examined by Wettstein, Griesbach, Scholz, and Gregory (1885).[3] It was examined and described by Paulin Martin.[8] C. R. Gregory saw the manuscript in 1885.[3]
The manuscript is currently housed at the Bibliothèque nationale de France (Gr. 95) at Paris.[2]
