Minuscule 895 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), ε3062 (von Soden),[1] is a 13th-century Greek minuscule manuscript of the New Testament on parchment. It has marginalia. The manuscript has survived in complete condition.
The codex contains the text of the four Gospels, with a commentary, on 239 parchment leaves (size). The text is written in one column per page, 22 lines per page.[2] [3]
The text of the Gospels is divided according to the Greek, Ancient (to 1453);: κεφαλαια (chapters), whose numbers are given at the margin, and their Greek, Ancient (to 1453);: τιτλοι (titles of chapters) at the top of the pages. There is also a division according to the smaller Ammonian Sections (in Mark 237 sections, the last section in 16:5), whose numbers are given at the margin, with references to the Eusebian Canons (written below Ammonian Section numbers).[4]
It contains the Epistula ad Carpianum, Eusebian Canon tables, Prolegomena, tables of the Greek, Ancient (to 1453);: κεφαλαια (tables of contents), lectionary markings at the margin (for liturgical use), subscriptions at the end each of the Gospels, and pictures.
The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine. Hermann von Soden classified it to the textual family Kx. Kurt Aland did not place it in any Category.[5]
According to the Claremont Profile Method it represents the textual family M10 in Luke 1 and Luke 20. In Luke 10 no profile was made.[6]
According to C. R. Gregory it was written in the 11th or 12th century. Currently the manuscript is dated by the INTF to the 13th century.[3]
The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Gregory (895e).[7] Formerly it was also classified as minuscule 2366 on the list of the New Testament manuscripts.
It is not cited in critical editions of the Greek New Testament (UBS4,[8] NA28[9]).
The manuscript is housed at the Princeton University Library (Garrett 7), in Princeton.
