Minuscule 1080 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), A312 (von Soden),[1] is a 9th-century Greek minuscule manuscript of the New Testament on parchment. The manuscript has not survived in complete condition.
The codex contains the text of the four Gospels with a commentary on 411 parchment leaves (size). The Gospel of Mark does not have a commentary.
The text is written in one column per page, 20 lines per page.[2] [3]
The text is divided according to chapters (Greek, Ancient (to 1453);: κεφαλαια), whose numbers are given at the margin, and their titles (Greek, Ancient (to 1453);: τιτλοι) at the top of the pages. There is also a division according to the Ammonian Sections (in Mark 233 Sections, the last in 16:8), with references to the Eusebian Canons (written in the same line with Ammonian Section numbers).[4] It has some illustrations.[5]
The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Hermann von Soden included it to the textual family Ab. Kurt Aland placed the Greek text of the codex in Category V.[6]
According to the Claremont Profile Method it represents the textual family Kx in Luke 1, and Luke 20. In Luke 10 it has a mixture of the Byzantine families. It is close to Codex Athous Dionysiou.[7]
It lacks the text of (Signs of the times) (added by a later hand it in the margin) and the Pericope Adulterae (John 7:53-8:11).
C. R. Gregory dated the manuscript to the 9th or 10th century.[4] Currently the manuscript is dated by the INTF to the 9th century.[3]
The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Gregory (1080e). C. R. Gregory saw it in 1886.[4] In 1908 Gregory gave it the siglum 1080.
Currently the manuscript is housed at the Great Lavra (A' 15), at Mount Athos.[2] [3]
