Incipit ( ):
Explicit ( ):
-The scribe does not attend to the ruling lines. However, the number of the ruling lines and the written lines is equal. -The number of the ruling lines is unstable, between 25-29. -Canon tables are drawn carelessly. -Canon table in check the viewer2v is not finished. - Numbers of the “tituli” are missing in all the Gospels. - Lack of the title of the Gospel of Matthew. -The chapters of the Gospels are not numerated. -Only some chapters of the Gospel of Matthew are entitled. If this is so, the title is written in the upper margin. The remaining Gospels do not have titles within the text. -The word mǝʿrāf corresponds to either a chapter or a section within a chapter. -Throughout each Gospel a continuous number is given to selected lines (They are written in the margins). -Punctuation sign ቁም (qum) between two black dashes ended with four red circles, or between two red dashes, (or “qu”, check the viewer79vb ) appears on numerous fols., e.g.: 41ra, 42va, 43va, 45va, 46rb, 48vb, 49ra, 49vab, 50va, 56rb, 60vb, 111vab, 113vab, 117rb, 118rab, 118vb, 119va, 121ra, 121vab, 122ra, 123rab, 127rab, 140rb. It seems to mark the beginning and the end of the passage assigned to be read on a certain day, check the viewer45vb-46rb . -check the viewer118vb , 119va, 132va, 134rb contain, beside ቁም (qum), a word አልዕል (ʾalʿǝl), perhaps indicating that the reading is preceded by singing “Hallelujah”.
