      The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. Hermann von Soden classified it to Ak, related to the Byzantine commentated text (along with 534, 546, 558, 573). Kurt Aland placed it in Category V.
      According to the Claremont Profile Method it represents textual family Kx in Luke 1 and Luke 10. In Luke 20 it has mixed Byzantine text.
