Description

The codex contains the text of the Acts, Catholic epistles, and Pauline epistles on 181 parchment leaves (18 cm by 13 cm) with lacunae (Hebrews 13:7-25). The text is written in one column per page, in 24-28 lines per page.

Folio 182, bound with the codex, contains the text of lectionary 922.

Text

The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Western text-type in Acts of the Apostles. In rest of books it represents the Alexandrian text-type.

Kurt Aland did not place it in any Category.

History

The manuscript was examined by Wettstein, Gaisford, Scholz, and Pott. Codex 58a of Wettstein is the same as 22a. C. R. Gregory saw it in 1883.

The manuscript was added to the list of the New Testament manuscripts by Scholz (1794-1852).

Formerly it was labelled by 58a and 224p. In 1908 Gregory gave the number 383 to it.

The manuscript is currently housed at the Bodleian Library (E. D. Clarke 9, fol. 1-181) in Oxford.
