Minuscule 533 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), ε 256 (in Soden's numbering),[1] is a Greek minuscule manuscript of the New Testament, on a parchment, dated to the 13th century. It was adapted for liturgical use; marginalia are incomplete.

Description
The codex contains an incomplete text of the four Gospels on 237 parchment leaves (size 16.6 cm by 13.6 cm) with some lacunae (Matthew 1:1-9:13; Luke 1:1-15; John 21:1-16).[2] The text is written in one column per page, 20 lines per page.[3]
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 a division according to the smaller Ammonian Sections (in Mark 241 Sections - the last in 16:20), but without references to the Eusebian Canons.[2][4]
The tables of the Script error: No such module "Lang". (tables of contents) are placed before each Gospel. It contains lectionary markings at the margin (for liturgical use), incipits, and iambic verses.[2][4]
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 textual cluster 121 in Luke 1 (fragmentary), Luke 10, and Luke 20.[5] Wisse did not assign cluster 121 to the family Kx.[7]
History
The manuscript is dated by the INTF on the palaeographical ground to the 13th century.[3]
In 1864 the manuscript was purchased from a dealer at Janina in Epeiros, by Baroness Burdett-Coutts (1814-1906), a philanthropist, together with other Greek manuscripts (among them codices 532-546). They were transported to England in 1870-1871.[2][8] All collection of manuscripts was presented by Burdett-Coutts to Sir Roger Cholmely's School.
The manuscript was added to the minuscule manuscripts of the New Testament by F. H. A. Scrivener (546) and C. R. Gregory (533).[4] Gregory saw it in 1883.[2]Template:R/superscript
