| Owner:
Arsenij Suchanov (17th century) marked the manuscript on f. 3r (see Roosen, 246), but did not bring it to Moscow.
Gen. (fragm.), I Macc., IV Macc., I Esdr. 1:1–4:28 (inf.).
| Mutilated at the beginning and end. The f. 222 is misplaced, it belongs after f. 82.
| Collation: Codex mixtus in case of Genesis (ed. Wevers), I Macc. (ed. Kappler), and I Esdr. (ed. Hanhart). In case of the Testamenta XII patriarcharum, this textual witness is most important since it contains two additions in accordance with the Aramaic Levi Document. The so-called third addition is the misplaced f. 222 (cf. Roosen, 244, n. 72)
| Text-type: Mixt.
