Text
The Greek text of this codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type, with some Alexandrian readings. According to Hermann von Soden it is one of the three oldest manuscripts that present the earliest variety of the Byzantine text-type (after S and V).[2][5] Soden included it to the textual family K1.[5]Kurt Aland placed it in Category V.[1]
According to the Claremont Profile Method it represents the textual family Kx in Luke 1, Luke 10, and Luke 20. It creates cluster with Minuscule 584.[6]
In John 1:29 it lacks ο Ιωαννης along with manuscripts Sinaiticus, Alexandrinus, Vaticanus, Cyprius, Campianus, Petropolitanus Purpureus, Vaticanus 354, Nanianus, Macedoniensis, Sangallensis, Koridethi, Petropolitanus, Athous Lavrensis, 047, 0141, 8, 9, 565, 1192;[7]
In John 5:25 it has "Son of Man" instead of "Son of God". Nazareth is transcribed in two ways as Ναζαρεθ (Alexandrian) and Ναζαρετ (Byzantine), Mose as Μωυσης (Alexandrian) and Μωσης (Byzantine). In John 1:28 it has the Alexandrian variant βηθανια (Bethany).
