The codex contains the text of the Gospel of Lukes 6,29-12,10 on 105 paper leaves (size 32.5 cm by 23 cm), with a commentary. The text is written in one column per page, 28 lines per page.[3][4][5]

Text

The Greek text of the codex Kurt Aland did not place it in any Category.[6] It was not examined by the Claremont Profile Method.[7]

History

According to F. H. A. Scrivener and C. R. Gregory it was written in the 16th century. Currently the manuscript is dated by the INTF to the 16th century.[4] Probably it was rewritten from minuscule 853.[5]

The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scrivener (704e),[8] Gregory (879e). Gregory saw it in 1886.[5]

It was examined and described by Ernesto Feron and Fabiano Battaglini (like minuscule 878) and 880).[9]

Currently the manuscript is housed at the Vatican Library (Ottob. gr. 100), in Rome.[3][4]
