The leaves are arranged in sedez.[5]

It contains Epistula ad Carpianum, Eusebian Canon tables, and liturgical books with hagiographies: Synaxarion and Menologion, at the end of the manuscript.[5] According to Hermann von Soden it contains lectionary markings at the margin and pictures.[2]

Text edit

The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine. Kurt Aland did not place it in any Category.[6] According to the Claremont Profile Method it represents textual Family Kx in Luke 1. In Luke 10 and Luke 20 the manuscript was not examined because of illegible text.[7]

History edit

 
View on the monastery Dionysiou

The manuscript was dated by Gregory to the 13th century.[5] Currently it is dated by the INTF to the 13th or 14th century.[3][4]

The codex 941 was seen by Gregory at the Dionysiou monastery (33), in Mount Athos.[5] Currently the manuscript is housed at the Dionysiou monastery (164 (33)) in Athos.

The manuscript was added to the list of New Testament manuscripts by C. R. Gregory (941e).[5] It was not on the Scrivener's list, but it was added to this list by Edward Miller in the 4th edition of A Plain Introduction to the Criticism of the New Testament.[8]

It is not cited in critical editions of the Greek New Testament (UBS4,[9] NA28[10]).
