Text

The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Hermann von Soden classified it to the textual family Kx. Kurt Aland did not place it in any Category.[7]

According to the Claremont Profile Method it represents mixed Byzantine text in Luke 1, Kx in Luke 10, and textual group Λ in Luke 20.[8]
