Minuscule 811 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), ε4005 (von Soden),[1][2] is a Greek minuscule manuscript of the New Testament written on parchment. Palaeographically it has been assigned to the 13th century.
Description[edit]
The codex contains the text of the four Gospels, on 289 parchment leaves (size 23 cm by 16.5 cm).[3]
The text is written in one column per page, 23 lines per page.[3][4]
Some parts of the Gospel of Matthew are on paper.[1]
Text[edit]
The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Aland placed it in Category V.[5]
It was not examined by Hermann von Soden. According to the Claremont Profile Method it has mixed Byzantine text in Luke 1 and represents textual family Kx in Luke 20. In Luke 10 no profile was made. It is related to the textual cluster 1053 in Luke 1.[6]
History[edit]
The manuscript is currently dated by the INTF to the 13th century.[4]
The scribe was Georgios, a priest. The manuscript was found in 1899.[1] It came from Corfu, and was held in Biblical Archaeology Society in Athens.[7]
It was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Gregory (811e). Gregory did not see it.[7]
The manuscript is now housed at the library of the National Library of Greece (2814) in Athens.[3][4]
