Text
Aland the Greek text of the codex did not place it in any Category.[5] According to Black it represents the Alexandrian text-type.[6] According to the Claremont Profile Method in Luke 1; 10; 20 it is close to Codex Tischendorfianus III and related to 1443.[7]
The Pericope Adulterae (John 7:53-8:11) is marked by an obelus.[3]
History
The subscription states that it was written by Leo, a priest and calligrapher, in October 1193, and bought in 1168 by Bartholomeus, who compared it with ancient Jerusalem manuscripts on the sacred mount.[4]
It was examined by Birch (about 1782) and Scholz (1794–1852). C. R. Gregory saw the manuscript in 1886.[3]
It is currently housed at the Vatican Library (Barberini gr. 319), at Rome.[2]
