Minuscule 537
Minuscule 537 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), ε 334 (in Soden's numbering), is a Greek minuscule manuscript of the New Testament, on a parchment. Palaeographically it has been assigned to the 12th century. Scrivener labelled it by number 550. The manuscript was prepared for liturgical use, its marginalia are not complete. It has survived until the present day in complete condition.
Currently it is housed at the University of Michigan. It is available in a digital form on the internet.
The codex contains a complete text of the four Gospels, on 144 parchment leaves (size 17.8 cm by 13.2 cm). The text is written in one column per page, 29 lines per page. The headpieces and large initial letters are decorated. It has breathings (spiritus asper and spiritus lenis) and accents.
It is carelessly written; the error of itacism is very common (983 in all), especially ε for αι, ο for ω, οι for η, η for ει, etc. According to Scrivener it has 16 omissions by ομοιορτελευτον (with the same beginning twice), iota adscriptum twice, iota subscriptum 52 times. N εφελκυστικον occurs 578 times, a hiatus 6 times.
It contains Lectionary markings at the margin (for liturgical service), a few τιτλοι (in red) were added by a later hand, many numbers of the Ammonian Sections (in Mark 237 Sections, the last section in 16:14), more often without references to the Eusebian Canons at the margin (written below Ammonian Section numbers), which are only partially inserted.
At the end of the Gospel of John it contains foreign matter: αρ της φυσεως των ζωων και ερμηνειας του εν αγιοις πρς ημων ιω του χρυσοστομου περι φυσιολογιας. Ο φυσιολογος καλος ελεγξει περι του λεοντος κ.τ.λ.
The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine, but with numerous alien readings. Hermann von Soden classified it to the textual family Iκ. Aland did not place it in any Category. According to the Claremont Profile Method it is represents textual family Kx in Luke 10 and Luke 20, but in Luke 1 it has Πa text.
The Genealogy of Jesus in Luke presents many variations from the common text (vv. 19, 26, 30; 26–34 confused). According to F. H. A. Scrivener it has notable readings in Matthew 11:17; 13:22; 27:49; Luke 18:2; John 6:57; 8:38.
