Text
The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Hermann von Soden classified it to Ak, related to the Antiocheian commentated text (along with 546, 558, 573, 715). Aland placed it in Category V.[5] According to the Claremont Profile Method it represents textual family Kx in Luke 1, Luke 10, and Luke 20 (fragmentary in Luke 1 and 20).[6]
History
The manuscript is dated by the INTF on the palaeographical ground to the 13th century.[2]
The manuscript was written by Marcus in the 13th century.[3] In 1864 it 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.[3][7] All collection was presented by Burdett-Coutts to Sir Roger Cholmely's School.
The manuscript was added to the list of the New Testament minuscule manuscripts by F. H. A. Scrivener (547) and C. R. Gregory (534).[4] Gregory saw it in 1883.[3]
The manuscript was housed at the Highgate (Burdett-Coutts 1. 7), in London.[3] It was examined and collated by Scrivener.[8]
It is currently housed at the University of Michigan (Ms. 26) in Ann Arbor.[2]
