A New Testament minuscule is a copy of a portion of the New Testament written in a small, cursive Greek script (developed from Uncial).Eberhard Nestle, Erwin Nestle, Barbara Aland and Kurt Aland (eds), Novum Testamentum Graece, 27th edition, (Stuttgart: Deutsche Bibelgesellschaft, 2001).
Legend 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 portionsBeige 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.
