The codex contains entire of the New Testament except its last book, the Book of Revelation, on 358 leaves. The text is written in one column per page, 27 lines per page. The initial letters in red, main text in black ink. The margins are wide, size of the text is. The text is divided according to the κεφαλαια, whose numbers are given at the margin, and their τιτλοι at the top of the pages. There is also another division according to the Ammonian Sections, without references to the Eusebian Canons. It contains prolegomena, tables of the κεφαλαια before each book, lectionary markings at the margin, incipits, liturgical books with hagiograpies, and pictures. The order of books is usual for the Greek manuscripts: Gospels, Acts, Catholic epistles, and Pauline epistles.
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. Aland placed it in Category V. According to the Claremont Profile Method it represents Kx in Luke 10. In Luke 1 and Luke 20 it has mixed Byzantine text. The manuscript is sometimes erroneously cited as the only known Greek copy to read in Luke 2:22 αὐτῆς with the Complutensian Polyglot. However, according to Caspar Rene Gregory who personally viewed the manuscript it actually reads αὐτῶν and not αὐτῆς. No Greek manuscripts of the NT read αὐτῆς in Luke 2:22, they either read αὐτῶν, αὑτον or αὐτου. The form αὐτῆς in the Complutensian Polyglot and the critical editions of Beza and Elzevir is wholly derived from the Latin eius. Its inclusion in the King James Bible is simply another example where a reading not found in any Greek manuscript was adopted via the Latin Vulgate's influence on Beza's critical editions.
History
Possibly it was used by editors of the Complutensian Polyglot. In 1690 Gerhard von Mastricht examined it for John Mill. In 1711 Mill used it in his edition of Novum Testamentum, and "erroneously" called it an uncial. It was used by Alter in his edition of the Greek New Testament in 1786. C. R. Gregory saw it in 1887. It is currently housed at the Austrian National Library, at Vienna.
