Ra 768

Mt. Athos, Λαύρα, Κ 75 (Eustratiades 1362). No diktyon: 28383.
s. XVII | Paper, 215 ff., 220 × 160 mm, 1 col., 20 lines per page. |  Minuscule (archaising, upright, typical for Mt. Athos, resembling the Hodegon style). | Provenance: Athos.
Prov.; Sap.; Sir.; Sus.; Bel et Dr.; Idt.; Mac. IV. | Ra 768 must be excluded as a witness to the Septuagint text, since it depends on a printed edition whose manuscript sources are known. Ziegler’s assessment that this manuscript forms the basis for Andreas Wechel’s edition is wrong. The text is in fact based on this edition. See Albrecht’s blog post (2024-05-01). | Collation: LXXGot
