Description
The codex contains the text of the four Gospels on 170 parchment leaves (18.6 cm by 12.8 cm). The text is written in one column per page, in 29 lines per page.[2]
The text is divided according to the κεφαλαια (chapters), whose numbers are given at the margin, and their τιτλοι (titles of chapters) at the top of the pages. There is also another division according to the Ammonian Sections, with references to the Eusebian Canons (written below Ammonian Section numbers).[3]
It contains the Epistula ad Carpianum, tables of the κεφαλαια (tables of contents) before each Gospel, lectionary markings at the margin for liturgical reading, and incipits. Synaxarion, Menologion, and list of Caesars were added by a later hand.[3]
To the same manuscript belongs lectionary 97 (folios 1-145).[3]
