Text
The Greek text of the codex is representative of the Byzantine text-type. Hermann von Soden lists it to the textual family K1, which is according to him the oldest family of the Byzantine text-type. Kurt Aland did not examine the Greek text of the codex by his method of thousand readings, and therefore he did not place it in any Category. The text of the manuscript was not examined by using the Claremont Profile Method. The texts of Matthew 16:2b–3 (the signs of the times), Christ's agony at Gethsemane (Luke 22:43-44), John 5:3-4, and the Pericope Adulterae (John 7:53-8:11) are marked with an asterisk (※) as doubtful. The text of Mark 16:9-20 has no numbered (chapters) at the margin, their (titles) at the top, nor Ammonian Sections and references to the Eusebian Canons. ==History==
