Minuscule 741 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), Θε417 (von Soden),[1][2] is a Greek minuscule manuscript of the New Testament written on paper. Palaeographically it has been assigned to the 14th century. The manuscript has complex contents.[3][4] Scrivener labelled it as 762e.[5]

Description

The codex contains the text of the Gospel of Luke, on 362 paper leaves (size 24.5 cm by 16.6 cm).[3] The text is written in one column per page, 42-51 lines per page.[3][6]

The manuscript was written by several hands.[6] It has a commentary of Theophylact.[6] It contains τιτλοι (titles) at the top of the pages.[5]

It contains lectionary markings at the margin, for liturgical reading.[1]

Text

The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Aland placed it in Category V.[7] It was not examined by using the Claremont Profile Method.[8]

It lacks the text of the Pericope Adulterae (John 7:53-8:11).[6]

History

Scrivener and Gregory dated the manuscript to the 14th century.[6] The manuscript is currently dated by the INTF to the 14th century.[4]

The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scrivener (762) and Gregory (741). It was examined and described by Paulin Martin.[9] Gregory saw the manuscript in 1885.[6]

The manuscript is now housed at the Bibliothèque nationale de France (Gr. 235) in Paris.[3][4]
