Uncial 0233 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), is a Greek uncial manuscript of the New Testament. The manuscript paleographically had been assigned to the 8th-century.
It contains a text of the four Gospels, on 93 parchment leaves (27 by 21 cm), with some lacunae. The text is written in two columns per page, 23-27 lines per page.[1]
It is a palimpsest, the upper text was written in a minuscule hand, it is a Lectionary 1684. In result the manuscript has two texts of the New Testament, and it is classified on two different lists: on the list of uncials and on the list of lectionaries.
The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Alexandrian text-type heavily interpolated by the Byzantine readings. Kurt Aland placed it in Category III (with the profile of 471, 232, 31/2, 5s).[1]
It is dated by the Institute for New Testament Textual Research to the 8th-century.[1] [5]
The manuscript was added to the list of the New Testament manuscripts by Kurt Aland in 1954.[6]
The codex used to be housed at the Bible Museum Münster (MS. 1), in the University of Münster.
