Minuscule 819 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), Θε420 (von Soden),[1][2] is a 14th-century Greek minuscule manuscript of the New Testament written on paper, with a commentary.

Description[edit]

The codex contains the text of the Gospel of Matthew and Gospel of John, on 361 paper leaves (size 23.7 cm by 20.5 cm), with a commentary.[3] The leaves were arranged in quarto (four leaves in quire).[4][5] The first leaf was supplied by later hand.[1]

The text is written in one column per page, 24 lines per page.[3][6]

It contains a commentary of Theophylact.[5]

Text[edit]

The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Aland placed it in Category V.[7]

History[edit]

Gregory dated the manuscript to the 14th century.[5] It is presently assigned to the 14th century on palaeographic grounds by the Institute for New Testament Textual Research.[3][6]

The manuscript belonged to Pedro Hurtado de Mendoza (1578–1651),[8][5] along with Minuscule 227. It was briefly described by Emmanuel Miller in 1848.[4]

It was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Gregory (819e).[5]

The manuscript is now housed in El Escorial (Ψ. III, 14).[3][6]
