A New Testament minuscule is a copy of a portion of the New Testament written in a small, cursive Greek script (developed from Uncial).[1]
Legend
edit- The numbers (#) are the now standard system of Caspar René Gregory, often referred to as the Gregory-Aland numbers.
- Included among the cataloged minuscules are the following types of manuscripts, color coded:
Grey represents continuous text manuscripts containing only New Testament portions |
Beige represents manuscripts with New Testament portions and a catena (quotations from church fathers) |
Light cyan represents manuscripts of single-author commentaries who included the full Scripture text. |
Light red represents manuscripts of single-author commentaries who included both the full Scripture text and a catena. |
Light purple represents manuscripts of commentaries where the Scripture text was abridged. |
White represents manuscript numbers no longer in use. |
- Dates are estimated to the nearest 100 year increment where specific date is unknown.
- Content generally only describes sections of the New Testament: Gospels, The Acts of the Apostles (Acts), Pauline epistles, and so on. Sometimes the surviving portion of a codex is so limited that specific books, chapters or even verses can be indicated. Linked articles, where they exist, generally specify content in detail, by verse.
- Digital images are referenced with direct links to the hosting web pages, with the exception of those at the INTF. The quality and accessibility of the images is as follows:
Gold color indicates high resolution color images available online. |
Tan color indicates high resolution color images available locally, not online. |
Light tan color indicates only a small fraction of manuscript pages with color images available online. |
Light gray color indicates black/white or microfilm images available online. |
Light blue color indicates manuscript not imaged, and is currently lost or ownership unknown. |
Light pink color indicates manuscript destroyed, presumed destroyed, or deemed too fragile to digitize. |
Violet color indicates high resolution ultraviolet images available online. |
† Indicates the manuscript has damaged or missing pages.
P Indicates only a portion of the books were included.
K Indicates manuscript also includes a commentary.
S Indicates lost portions of manuscript replaced via supplement of a later hand.
abs (abschrift) Indicates manuscript is copy.
[ ] Brackets around Gregory-Aland number indicate the manuscript belongs to an already numbered manuscript, was found to not be a continuous text manuscript, was found to be written in modern Greek versus Koine Greek, was proved a forgery, or has been destroyed.
