Minuscule 27 (in the

minuscule manuscript of the New Testament, written on vellum. Palaeographically it has been assigned to the 10th-century.[2][3] It has liturgical books and marginalia
.

Description

The codex contains a complete text of the four Gospels, on 460 leaves (16 cm by 12.1 cm), though from John 18:3 the text is supplied. The text is written in one column per page, 19 lines per page. It is ornamented in gold and silver.[4]

The text is divided according to the κεφαλαια (chapters), whose numerals are given at the margin, the τιτλοι (titles of chapters) at the top of the pages. There is also a division according to the Ammonian Sections (in Mark 241, the last section in 16:20), with references to the Eusebian Canons (written below Ammonian Section numbers).[4]

It contains the tables of the κεφαλαια (tables of contents) before each Gospel, pictures. Liturgical books with hagiographies (

Menologion) were added by a later hand.[5]

It was extensively altered by a later hand.[5]

Text

The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type (the text-types are groups of different manuscripts which share specific or generally related readings, which then differ from each other group, and thus the conflicting readings can separate out the groups, which are then used to determine the original text as published; there are three main groups with names: Alexandrian, Western, and Byzantine).[6] Biblical scholar and textual critic Kurt Aland placed it in Category V according to his manuscript text classification system.[7] It belongs to the textual Family 1424.

According to the

71, 569, 692, 750, 1170, 1222, 1413, 1415, 1458, 1626, 2715.[8]

In Luke 10:21, it has an interesting reading that agrees with

Marcion's edit of Luke's Gospel. The omitted text καὶ τῆς γῆς was inserted in the right hand margin as a correction.[9]

History

The codex is dated by the

INTF to the 11th-century.[3]

The first collation was prepared by Larroque (along with the codices 28-33), but it was very imperfect.[5]

The codex was examined and described by

C. R. Gregory saw the manuscript in 1885.[4]

The codex is currently housed at the Bibliothèque nationale de France (Gr. 115) at Paris.[2][3]
