List of New Testament minuscules (1–1000)

This list catalogs the first thousand New Testament minuscule manuscripts, using the numbering system established by Gregory-Aland. Minuscules are uncial manuscripts written in minuscule script, which developed after the 9th century. These manuscripts are crucial for textual criticism of the New Testament, providing a vast array of variant readings that help scholars reconstruct the original text. The numbering system isn't strictly chronological; it reflects the order of their cataloging and discovery. Each manuscript has unique characteristics concerning its script, date, provenance, and textual affiliations. Information about a specific manuscript's content, date, and textual family can be found in specialized resources such as the Nestle-Aland Novum Testamentum Graece apparatus and the Institute for New Testament Textual Research's online databases. Further research into individual manuscripts (e.g., Codex 28, Codex 181, etc.) will reveal more specific details.

The significance of these manuscripts lies in their sheer number and geographical distribution. They represent a wide range of textual traditions, offering valuable insights into how the New Testament text was transmitted and interpreted over centuries. Scholars analyze these variations to determine the most likely original reading and understand the history of the text.

Further research on individual minuscules within this range (1-1000) can be found through various academic resources focusing on New Testament textual criticism. Consult scholarly articles and databases for detailed information on specific manuscripts. Note that the information contained within each individual manuscript description varies greatly in terms of detail and completeness.
