Description

The codex contains the text of the Acts of the Apostles, Catholic epistles, Pauline epistles (He, 1 Tim), and the Book of Revelation, on 123 parchment leaves (size 26.5 cm by 18.6 cm), with some lacunae. The text is written in two columns per page, 37 lines per page.[2]

It contains prolegomena, tables of the κεφαλαια (tables of contents) before each book, many lists, numbers of the κεφαλαια (chapters) in the margin (sometimes), and the Comma Johanneum (added on the margin by a later hand).

It was assigned the number 88 by Caspar René Gregory.[4]

The section 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 is placed after 1 Corinthians 14:40, which is its location in manuscripts of the Western text-type (Claromontanus, Augiensis, Boernerianus, itar,e), and one manuscript of the Vulgate (Codex Reginensis).[5][6]

In 1 John 5:6 it has textual variant δι' ὕδατος καὶ πνεύματος καὶ αἵματος (through water and spirit and blood) together with the manuscripts: Codex Porphyrianus, 81, 442, 630, 915, 2492, arm, eth.[13][n 1] Bart D. Ehrman identified it as Orthodox corrupt reading.[14] It contains the Comma Johanneum added by a later hand on the margin.[15]
