Lectionary 199, designated by siglum 199 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering) is a Greek manuscript of the New Testament, on parchment. Palaeographically it has been assigned to the 13th century.[1][2] Scrivener labelled it by 207evl.[3]

Description[edit]

The codex contains lessons from the Gospels of John, Matthew, Luke lectionary (Evangelistarium), on 243 parchment leaves (28 cm by 22.5 cm), with lacunae at the beginning and end.[3][4] The text is written in Greek minuscule letters, in two columns per page, 21-24 lines per page.[1][2] It contains musical notes.[4] The leaves were bound in disorder. Dean Burgon noted: "A fine ruin, miserably cropped by the modern binder: the writing is very dissimilar in parts".[3]

There are daily lessons from Easter to Pentecost.[1]

History[edit]

Gregory dated the manuscript to the 13th century.[3][4] Today it is dated by the INTF to the 13th century.[1][2]

The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scrivener (number 207) and Gregory (number 199). Gregory saw it in 1883.[4]

The manuscript is not cited in the critical editions of the Greek New Testament (UBS3).[5]

Currently the codex is located in the Bodleian Library (E. D. Clarke 46) at Oxford.[1][2]
