Codex Coislinianus (M)
The Codex Coislinianus (M after Rahlfs ) is a manuscript from the 7th century in Greek ( Septuagint ). It contains almost all of the text from the books of Genesis to First Kings of the Old Testament.
227 sheets of parchment have been preserved, with uncials written on them in two columns of 49 or 50 lines each . The text is partly similar to the Codex Alexandrinus and contains elements of the Hexapla . There are numerous notes with quotations from the New Testament . Further notes were added in the 9th century.
The manuscript came to Paris for Chancellor Pierre Séguier (1588–1672) in the middle of the 17th century "from the East". Bernard de Montfaucon was the first to describe it in his Biblioteca Coisliniana in 1715. The manuscript is now in the Bibliothèque nationale in Paris with the signature Cod. Cosl. gr. 1.
