Minuscule 60 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering),
Description
[edit]The codex contains complete text of the four Gospels and Revelation on 291 leaves (size 20.5 cm by 14.5 cm).[2] The text is written elegantly in one column per page, 24-26 lines per page.[3]
The text is divided according to κεφαλαια (chapters), whose numbers are given at the margin, and their τιτλοι (titles of chapters) at the top of the pages. The text is also divided into the Ammonian Sections, but curiously no references to the Eusebian Canons on a margin of the text.[3]
It contains the Epistula ad Carpianum, the Eusebian Tables, tables of the κεφαλαια (tables of contents) before each Gospel, subscriptions at the end of each Gospel, and pictures. It has a few scholia from Arethas.[4]
Together with the codex 2821 it belongs to the same manuscript. Folios 4-294 belong to the codex 60, folios 295-316 – to the codex 2821.[2]
Text
[edit]The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Hermann von Soden classified it to the textual family Kx.[5] Kurt Aland placed it in Category V.[6] According to the Claremont Profile Method it represents textual cluster 1685, and it is closely related to Kx.[5]
