Minuscule 361 Explained

Minuscule 361 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), ε 316 (Soden),[1] is a Greek minuscule manuscript of the New Testament, on parchment. Paleographically it has been assigned to the 13th century.[2] It was adapted for liturgical use. It is known as Codex de Rossi 1.

Description

The codex contains the text of the four Gospels on 186 parchment leaves with lacunae (Luke 8:14-11:20). It is written in one column per page, in 20 lines per page.[2]

It contains the tables of the Greek, Ancient (to 1453);: κεφαλαια (tables of contents) before each Gospel (with a harmony), lectionary equipment at the margin (for liturgical use), Greek, Ancient (to 1453);: αναγνωσεις (lessons), Synaxarion, Menologion, subscriptions at the end of each Gospel, and numbers of Greek, Ancient (to 1453);: [[Stichometry|στιχοι]].[3] [4]

Text

The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Hermann von Soden classified it to the textual family Kr. Aland placed it in Category V.[5] It belongs to the textual family Kr in Luke 1 and Luke 20. In Luke 10 the manuscript is defective.[6]

History

The manuscript once belonged to J. B. de Rossi.[3] The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by Scholz (1794–1852).[7] It was fully described (as also minuscule 360) by De Rossi in his Catalogue. It was examined by Burgon. C. R. Gregory saw it in 1886.[3]

The manuscript is currently housed at the Biblioteca Palatina in Parma (Ms. Parm. 1821).[2]
