Minuscule 293
Template:New Testament manuscript infobox
Minuscule 293 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), ε 365 (Soden),[1] is a Greek minuscule manuscript of the New Testament, on parchment. It is dated by a colophon to the year 1262.[2] Scrivener wrongly deciphered this as November 1373.[3] It has marginalia.
Description
The codex contains almost complete text of the four Gospels on 340 parchment leaves (13.3 cm by 8.9 cm), with lacunae (Mark 1:1-3:8). The text is written in one column per page, in 19-23 lines per page,[2] by several different hands. Mark 1:1-3:8 was supplied by a later hand.
The text is divided according to the Script error: No such module "Lang". (chapters), whose numbers are given at the margin, and their Script error: No such module "Lang". (titles of chapters) at the top of the pages. There is also another division according to the Ammonian Sections (in Mark 241 - 16:20), but without references to the Eusebian Canons.[4]
It contains Prolegomena, tables of the Script error: No such module "Lang". (tables of contents) before each Gospel, Synaxarion, subscriptions at the end, numbers of Script error: No such module "Lang"., and pictures.[4] It is ornamented with silver.[4]
It is a palimpsest. The lower text was written in uncial letters, in two columns. It was Evangelistarion-Lectionary, dated palaeographically to the 9th or 10th century.[2][4] The upper text of the palimpsest is the text of minuscule 293.
Text
The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Hermann von Soden classified it to the textual family Kx.[5] Aland placed it in Category V.[6]
According to the Claremont Profile Method it represents the textual group M1195 in Luke 1, Luke 10, and Luke 20, as a weak member.[5]
History
The manuscript was written by Manuel at the suggestion of Blasius, a monk.[4] It was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scholz (1794–1852).[7] It was examined and described by Paulin Martin.[8] C. R. Gregory saw it in 1885.[4]
The manuscript is currently housed at the Bibliothèque nationale de France (Gr. 117) at Paris.[2]
