Minuscule 2 (numbered after Gregory-Aland ), ε 1214 ( Soden ) is a Greek minuscule manuscript of the New Testament on 248 sheets of parchment (19.5 × 15.2 cm). The manuscript was dated to the 12th / 13th centuries by means of paleography . Dated century. 8 sheets are missing, but the text is complete.

description

The code contains the full four gospels . The pages are described in one column with 20 lines per page. Ornaments are colored, initial letters in red. There are the Ammonian Sections, but the Eusebian Canon is missing . It contains κεφαλαια (except John) and τιτλοι. The text is bad and teeming with typing errors. The division of Matthew into 359 ammonian sections, Mark - 240, Luke - 342 and John - 231, is unusual. Normally, the division of Ammonios into 355, 235, 343 and 232 sections.

Text of the code

The Greek text represents the Byzantine text type . Aland placed it in Category V a.

History of the Code

The codex was partly used by Desiderius Erasmus as the basis for his Novum Instrumentum omne (1516). In this way his readings became part of the Textus Receptus . Erasmus had received the code from a Dominican in Basel. Robert Estienne did not use this manuscript in his Editio Regia (1550), but relied on the text by Erasmus. The code was cited only once in the 27th edition of the Novum Testamentum Graece by Nestle-Aland (1 Cor 11:23).

The code is now at the University of Basel (AN IV. 1).
