The original codex contained lessons from the Gospel of John (Evangelistarium), with lacunae[2] on 118 parchment leaves. The leaves are measured (24.3 cm by 18.5 cm).[3][4] It begins at John 17:20.[5]

The text is written in Greek minuscule letters, in two columns per page, 25–29 lines per page.[3][4]

The codex contains weekday Gospel lessons from Easter to Pentecost and Saturday/Sunday Gospel lessons for the other weeks.[3][4]

History

According to the colophon it was written in 1272.[2][3] It is presently assigned by the INTF to the 13th-century.[3][4]

It was written by a monk named Cosmas for one Basilius.[2]

It was purchased from Ivor B. Guest in 1871 (along with lectionary 330). It was examined and described by Oscar von Gebhardt in 1881.[2]

The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scrivener (280e)[5] and Gregory (number 331e).[2] Gregory saw it in 1883.[2]

Currently the codex is housed at the British Library (Add MS 28818) in London.[3][4]

The fragment is not cited in critical editions of the Greek New Testament (UBS4,[6] NA28[7]).
