Text

The Greek text of the Acts of the Apostles and the Catholic epistles Aland placed in Category III. It exhibits a remarkable text. The text of the Pauline epistles and Apocalypse is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Aland placed it in Category V.[5] In the Pauline epistles, the text is close to the codices 206, 522, 1891, and 2815.

In Acts 12:25 it reads εξ Ιερουσαλημ εις Αντιοχειαν (from Jerusalem to Antioch) along with 945, 1739, e, p, syrp, copsa geo; majority reads εις Ιερουσαλημ (to Jerusalem);[6]

In 2 Timothy 2:14 it reads Χριστου (of Christ) for θεοῦ (of God) along with 206, 1758.[7]

History

Acts and epistles were written by George, a monk in the 14th century (Scrivener 13th century). The Apocalypse was added later in the 14th or 15th century.[4]

The manuscript was examined by Franz Anton Knittel in 1773,[8] Matthaei (designated by X), and Franz Delitsch. C. R. Gregory saw it in 1891.[3] Formerly it was labelled by 69a, 74p, and 30r. In 1908 Gregory gave the number 429 to it.[1]

The manuscript is currently housed at the Herzog August Bibliothek (Codd. Aug. Quarto 16.7.4) in Wolfenbüttel.[2]
