The codex contains Lessons from the Gospels of John, Matthew, Luke lectionary (Evangelistarium) with lacunae at the end.[3] It contains also four lessons from the Prophets and four lessons from Epistles.[2] It is written in Greek minuscule letters, on 218 parchment leaves (30 cm by 22.5 cm), in two columns per page, 28-32 lines per page.[1] It contains the Pericope Adulterae (John 8:3-11).[3] It has Synaxarion. It is ornamented.[2] It is much fuller than most lectionaries, and contains many minute variations.
The codex with two other Evangelistaria (Lectionary 6 and Lectionary 13), codex 59 (by the first hand), supports Codex Sinaiticus and Eusebius in the significant omission of υιου βαραχιου (son of Barachi'ah) in Matthew 23:35.[2]
According to Gregory its text is "nicht schlecht" (not bad).[3]
In Matthew 10:3 it reads Θαδδαιος along with Sinaiticus, Vaticanus, 892, vg, cop.[4]
In Matthew 12:30 it reads διαρπαστω for σκορπιζει.[5]
In Luke 15:21 it has additional reading ποιησον με ως ενα των μισθιων σου; the reading is supported by Sinaiticus, Vaticanus, Bezae, Monacensis, 33, 700, 1195, 1216, 1230, 1241, 1253, 1344, ℓ 13, ℓ 15, ℓ 60, ℓ 80.[6]
In John 8:9 it has singular reading της ιδιας συνειδησεως for usual reading οι δε ακουσαντης εξηρχοντο εις καθ' εις;[7]
In John 8:10 it reads, at the margin, Ιησους ειδεν αυτην και along with Codex Nanianus, Codex Tischendorfianus III, f13, 225, 700, 1077, 1443, Ethiopic mss. Majority of the manuscripts read: Ιησους και μηδενα θεασαμενος πλην της γυναικος or: Ιησους.[8][9]
The manuscript is dated by the INTF to the 11th century.[1]
The manuscript exhibits a subscription dated to 1261 (much later than codex).[2] Another note states that the manuscript once belonged to one Athanasius, alumnus from College. Francis Tayler, preacher in Christ Church in Canterbury, presented it in 1654 to the library.[3]
It was examined by Scrivener and Gregory. Scrivener gave its collation in 1859. It is often cited in the critical editions of the Greek New Testament (UBS3).[10]
Currently the codex is located in the Christ's College (GG. 1.6) at Cambridge.[1]
