Minuscule 629

Minuscule 629 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), α 460 (von Soden), is a LatinGreek diglot minuscule manuscript of the New Testament, on parchment. It is known as Codex Ottobonianus. Palaeographically it has been assigned to the 14th century. The manuscript is lacunose. It is known for the Comma Johanneum.

Formerly it was labeled by 162a and 200p. Currently it is designated by the number 629.

The codex contains the text of the Acts of the Apostles, General epistles, and Pauline epistles, on 265 parchment leaves (size 17.1 cm by 12.1 cm), with lacunae at the beginning and end (Acts 1:1-2:27; Revelation 18:22-22:21). The text is written in two columns per page, 27 lines per page. The Latin text is alongside the Greek, the Greek column on the right.

The Latin column contains Prolegomena at the beginning and subscriptions at the end of each sacred book. The words are moved very often or put in Latin order; even division of the lines and syllables follow the Latin order.

The order of books is Acts of the Apostles, General epistles, and Pauline epistles. Epistle to the Hebrews is placed after Epistle to Philemon.

The Greek text of the codex has been revised according to the Vulgate. The Greek text is made to conform to the Vulgate Latin text, but the assimilation is far from complete. It has some Western elements in the Pauline epistles.

Kurt and Barbara Aland placed the Greek text of the codex in Category III. In the General epistles it has the number of singular readings. It has some unusual readings added by a later hand.

It has a unique reading of Acts 8:37, specifically mentioning the eunuch.
