Minuscule 200 is a Greek minuscule manuscript of the New Testament Gospels, written on parchment. It is designated by the siglum 200 in the Gregory-Aland numbering of New Testament manuscripts, and ε 118 in the von Soden numbering of New Testament manuscripts.[1] Using the study of comparative writing styles (palaeography), it has been dated to the 11th century.[2] The manuscript has marginal notes.

Description

[edit]

The manuscript is a codex (precursor to the modern book format), containing the complete text of the four Gospels written on 229 parchment leaves (22.4 cm by 17.5 cm).[3][2][4] The text is written in two columns per page, 25 lines per page.[3][2][4] The ink used is either light brown or dark brown for some pages, with the capital letters written in gold ink.[3]

The text is divided according to the chapters (known as κεφαλαια / kephalaia), whose numbers are given in the margin, and their titles (known as τιτλοι / titloi) written at the top of the pages. There is also a division according to the Ammonian Sections, whose numbers are written in gold ink in the margin.[3] There is also references to the Eusebian Canons, which are written in red ink below the Ammonian Section numbers (both early divisions of the Gospels into sections).[3]

It contains pictures, the Epistle to Carpian, the Eusebian Canon tables, with the tables of contents (also known as κεφαλαια) placed before each Gospel, and fragments of a work by Gregory of Nyssa called "Against the Arians." The Synaxarion and Menologion were added in the 14th century.[3][5]

Text

[edit]

The Greek text is considered to be a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Biblical scholar Kurt Aland placed it in Category V of his New Testament manuscript classification system.[6] Category V manuscripts are described as "manuscripts with a purely or predominantly Byzantine text."[6]: 336 

According to the Claremont Profile Method (a specific analysis of textual data), it represents textual cluster Π200.[7] The verses in John 7:53-8:11 (known as the Pericope Adulterae), are marked with an obelus to indicate the passage is considered to be doubtful.[3]

History

[edit]

The earliest history of the manuscript is unknown. It once belonged to Antonio Corbinelli († 1423) and together with Minuscule 199 it was presented to Benedictine monastery.[3] It was examined by textual critic Andreas Birch, and church clergyman Dean Burgon. Biblical scholar Caspar René Gregory saw it in 1886.[3]

It is currently dated by the INTF to the 11th century.[4] It is presently housed at the Laurentian Library (shelf number Conv. Sopp. 160), in Florence.[2][4]
