Lectionary 314 (Gregory-Aland), designated by

siglum 314 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering) is a Greek manuscript of the New Testament, on parchment. Palaeographically
it has been assigned to the 12th century. The manuscript has survived in a fragmentary condition.

Description

The codex contains Lessons from the Gospels of lectionary (Evangelistarium).[1] It is written in Greek

minuscule letters, on two parchment leaves (33 cm by 26 cm), 2 columns per page, 21 lines per page.[2][3]

History

Gregory dated the manuscript to the 12th century.[1] It has been assigned by the Institute for New Testament Textual Research (INTF) to the 12th century.[2][3]

Of the history of the codex 314 nothing is known until the year 1864, when it was in the possession of a dealer at Janina in Epeiros. It was then purchased from him by a representative of Baroness Burdett-Coutts (1814–1906), a philanthropist,[4] together with other Greek manuscripts (among them lectionaries 313 and 315).[1] They were transported to England in 1870-1871.[5]

The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by

F. H. A. Scrivener (495) Caspar René Gregory (number 314e).[1]

It used to be held in London (Burdett-Coutts II. 14).[1] The codex is now housed in the library of the Brown University (Koopmann Collect. B X 360) in Providence, Rhode Island.[2][3]

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