Catena in Psalmos.
| The manuscript contains a Catena on the Psalms (1–50) with a prologue. It is an apograph of Ra 1121, cf. Dorival, Les chaînes exégétiques, I, p. 116. The names of the exegetes (in short form) are placed next to the commentary and are rubricated. The codex has an elegant “mise en page” with finely decorated initial letters. The titles and the numbers of the Psalms are rubricated. On the catena type of this manuscript, see the description of its Vorlage Ra 1121, on its text-type, see Albrecht, “Origenic Recension”.
