Text

The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Hermann von Soden classified it to the textual family Kr.[4] Aland placed it in Category V.[5] According to the Claremont Profile Method it represents the textual family Kr in Luke 1 and Luke 20. It belongs to the textual cluster 167. In Luke 10 no profile was made.[4]

History

Formerly the manuscript, together with 388, 389, and 390 belonged to Giovanni Angelo Herzog von Altaemps († 1627).[3]

The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scholz (1794-1852).[6] It was examined and described by Giuseppe Cozza-Luzi.[7] C. R. Gregory saw it in 1886.[3]

It was examined by Ernesto Feron and Fabiano Battaglini (like minuscule 878 and 880).[8]

The manuscript is currently housed at the Vatican Library (Ottob. gr. 66) in Rome.[2]
