The text is divided according to the κεφαλαια (chapters), whose numbers are given at the margin.[4]

History

Formerly the manuscript belonged to the monastery Constantos, then to Richard Mead. Wettstein saw it in 1746 in London. It was examined by Askew, Griesbach, Bloomfeld, and Gregory.[4] Griesbach collated its text in Pauline epistles.[3] C. R. Gregory saw it in 1883.[4] Formerly it was labelled by 22a and 75p. In 1908 Gregory gave number 312 for it.[1]
