Lectionary 4, designated by siglum 4 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), is a Greek manuscript of the New Testament, on vellum leaves. Palaeographically it has been assigned to the 11th-century.

Description

The codex contains Lessons from the Gospels John, Matthew, and Luke lectionary (Evangelistarium). The text is written in Greek minuscule letters, on 199 parchment leaves (27.9 cm by 22.3 cm), 2 columns per page, 24-25 lines per page. It contains musical notes.

It contains synaxaria and Menologion. The pericope John 8:1-12 (not 8:3-11) is included.
