The nomina sacra (special names/words considered sacred in Christianity, abbreviated usually with the first and last letter, and notified with an overline) are employed throughout. The last letter is dependent upon case; the nominative case abbreviations are as follows: {{overline|ΑΝΟΣ}} / {{lang|grc|ανθρωπος}} (man), {{overline|ΔΑΔ}} / {{lang|grc|δαυιδ}} (David), {{overline|ΘΣ}} / {{lang|grc|θεος}} (God), {{overline|ΙΣ}} / {{lang|grc|Ιησους}} (Jesus), {{overline|ΙΛΗΜ}} / {{lang|grc|ιερουσαλημ}} (Jerusalem), {{overline|ΙΗΛ}} / {{lang|grc|ισραηλ}} (Israel), {{overline|ΚΣ}} / {{lang|grc|κυριος}} (Lord), {{overline|ΜΗΡ}} / {{lang|grc|μητηρ}} (mother), {{overline|ΟΥΝΟΣ}} / {{lang|grc|ουρανος}} (heaven), {{overline|ΟΥΝΙΟΣ}} / {{lang|grc|ουρανιος}} (heavenly), {{overline|ΠΗΡ}} / {{lang|grc|πατηρ}} (father), {{overline|ΠΝΑ}} / {{lang|grc|πνευμα}} (spirit), {{overline|ΠΝΙΚΟΣ}} / {{lang|grc|πνευματικος}} (spiritual), {{overline|ΣΡΙΑ}} / {{lang|grc|σωτηρια}} (salvation), {{overline|ΥΣ}} / {{lang|grc|υιος}} (son), {{overline|ΧΣ}} / {{lang|grc|χριστος}} (Christ/Messiah).{{r|Scholz|p=59}}

The text is divided according to the Ammonian Sections (Matthew has 359 sections, Mark 241, Luke 342, and John 232), whose numbers are given in the left margin of the text, and despite containing the Eusebian Canon tables at the beginning of the codex, references to the Eusebian Canons are absent.{{r|Scrivener}} There was no other division according to the chapters (known as {{lang|grc|κεφαλαια}} / kephalaia) in the original codex, though it has their titles (known as {{lang|grc|τιτλοι}} / titloi) at the top of the pages, and the chapter tables before each Gospel. The chapter numbers were added by a later hand (Matthew has 68, Mark 48, Luke 83, and John 19).{{r|Scholz|p=57}} It contains subscriptions after each of first three Gospels.{{r|Scholz|p=57}}

Near the end of the manuscript, on the reverse of page 267, there is a colophon (subscription) inserted by a second hand. According to this colophon the manuscript was written by a scribe named Basil, and it was bound by one Theodoulos, who commended themselves to the Virgin and St. Eutychios.{{Cite book | last=Lake | first=Silva | author-link=Silva Lake | title=Family Π and the Codex Alexandrinus: The Text According to Mark | url=https://archive.org/details/MN41429ucmf_4 | year=1937 | publisher=Christophers | location=London }}{{rp|11}} {{r|Gregory|p=55}} Some parts of the colophon are uncertain.{{Cite book | first=Constantin | last=von Tischendorf | author-link=Constantin von Tischendorf | title=Novum Testamentum Graece | edition=8 | page=380 | year=1884 | publisher=J.C.

The Greek text of this codex is considered a representative of the Byzantine text-type.{{Cite book | last1=Metzger | first1=Bruce Manning | last2=Ehrman | first2=Bart D. | author-link1=Bruce M. Metzger | author-link2=Bart D. Ehrman | title=The Text of the New Testament: Its Transmission, Corruption and Restoration | publisher=Oxford University Press | edition=4th | location=Oxford | year=2005 | isbn=0-19-516667-1 | page=77 }} The text-types are groups of different New Testament manuscripts which share specific or generally related readings, which then differ from each other group, and thus the conflicting readings can separate out the groups. These are then used to determine the original text as published; there are three main groups with names: Alexandrian, Western, and Byzantine.{{r|Ehrman|pp=205-230}} Together with Codex Petropolitanus (Π), the Codex Cyprius belongs to family Π, a group of manuscripts in close relationship to the text seen in Codex Alexandrinus (A). According to biblical scholar Samuel Prideaux Tregelles, it has many good and valuable readings,{{r|Tregelles}} but according to biblical scholar Frederic Kenyon the text of the codex has no remarkable value, due to the manuscript being of a late date.{{r|Kenyon}} According to biblical scholar Caspar René Gregory it has many old readings that preceded the Byzantine text-type.{{r|Gregory|p=54}} Textual critic Hermann von Soden classified it to the textual family Caesarean text-type,{{cite book | last=Soden, von | first=Hermann | author-link=Hermann, Freiherr von Soden | title=Die Schriften des neuen Testaments, in ihrer ältesten erreichbaren Textgestalt / hergestellt auf Grund ihrer Textgeschichte | volume=1 | page=128 | year=1902 | publisher=Verlag von Alexander Duncker | location=Berlin | language=German }} and associated the provenance of this text with Jerusalem.{{r|Wisse}}

Textual critic Silva Lake considered the text of the codex as a somewhat diluted form of family Π, with a large number of peculiar readings, most of which are either misspellings or careless and ignorant mistakes.{{r|Silva-FamP|p=37}} According to her an educated scribe could hardly have produced the variants in {{bibleref|Mark|4:1}}; {{bibleref|Mark|6:26}}; {{bibleref|Mark|9:4}}; {{bibleref|Mark|13:3}}; {{bibleref|Mark|14:38}}; or {{bibleref|Mark|16:4}}.{{r|Silva-FamP|p=37}} The readings it does not share with other Family Π representatives are supported outside the family, and they seem to be connected with the late Alexandrian group (C, L, M, N, Δ), but the number of Alexandrian readings is not high, and Silva Lake considered them as a result of accident as opposed to influence from a different text-type.{{r|Silva-FamP|p=37}}

Textual critic Kurt Aland placed its text in Category V of his New Testament classification system.{{r|Aland}} Category V manuscripts are described as having "a purely or predominantly Byzantine text."{{r|Aland|p=336}} According to the Claremont Profile Method (a specific analysis method of textual data), its text belongs to the textual family Family Π in Luke 1, Luke 10, and Luke 20.{{Cite book | last=Wisse | first=Frederik | title=The Profile Method for the Classification and Evaluation of Manuscript Evidence, as Applied to the Continuous Greek Text of the Gospel of Luke | page=52 | year=1982 | publisher=William B.

The early history of the codex is unknown. It was brought from Cyprus to the Colbert Library (no. 5149) in Paris in 1673,{{r|Scrivener|p=136}} whence it passed into its present locality in the National Library of France.{{r|Tregelles|p=201}}

The manuscript was examined by biblical critic Richard Simon,{{Cite book | first=Richard | last=Simon | title=Histoire Critique du texte du Nouveau Testament | pages=101, 407 | year=1689 | publisher=Reinier Leers | location=Rotterdam | language=French | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=MfBbAAAAQAAJ }} who made some extracts for textual critic John Mill, who used readings from the codex in his edition of Novum Testamentum Graecum (an edition of the Greek New Testament) in 1710.{{Cite book | first=John | last=Mill | author-link=John Mill (theologian) | title=Novum Testamentum Graecum cum Lectionibus Variantibus | page=166, §1498 | year=1710 | publisher=John Fridericum Gleditsch | location=Amsterdam }} Palaeographer Bernard de Montfaucon published the first facsimile of a page from the codex containing the text of {{bibleref|Matthew|2:19–22}} in 1708, and used the manuscript for his palaeographical studies.{{Cite book | first=Bernard | last=de Montfaucon | title=Palaeoraphia Graeca | page=232 | year=1708 | location=Paris | url=http://en.calameo.com/read/0001070443b15b4eb3655}} Wettstein (for works published 1751-1752) employed readings from the codex, but with quite a large number of errors.{{r|Tregelles}} Biblical scholar Johann M. A. Scholz valued it very highly, and he collated its text and noted its textual variants in 1820,{{r|Scholz|pp=53–90}} but with so little care and numerous errors that his list is now ignored.{{r|Scrivener}} Textual critic Constantin von Tischendorf produced a new collation in 1842, with Tregelles producing another independent collation in 1849, and in 1850 they compared their collations in Leipzig, and created a new list.{{r|Scrivener}} Its textual variants are cited in Tischendorf's Editio Octava Critica maior (a critical edition of the Greek New Testament).{{r|Octava}} Scrivener published a facsimile with the text of {{bibleref|John|6:52–53}} in 1861.{{r|Scrivener|p=153, Plate VII}}

Historian Henri Omont and New Testament scholar William Hatch published some fragments of the codex in separate facsimile samples in 1892 and 1896 respectively.{{Cite book | first=Henri | last=Omont | author-link=Henri Omont | title=Facsimilés des plus anciens manuscrits grecs de la Bibliothèque Nationale du IVe et XIIIe siècle | series= Bibliothèque de l'École des chartes | page=17/2 (Plate) | year=1892 | publisher=Ernest Leroux | location=Paris | language=fr }}; {{cite book | last=Omont | first=Henri | author-link=Henri Omont | title=Très anciens manuscrits grecs bibliques et classiques de la Bibliothèque nationale | series = Bibliothèque de l'École des chartes | page=5 (Plate) | year=1896 | publisher=Impr.

The manuscript was also examined and described by biblical scholar Bianchini in 1749,{{Cite book | first=Giuseppe | last=Bianchini | title=Evangeliarium quadruplex latinae versionis antiquae seu veteris italicae | volume=2 | page=DIII | year=1749 | location=Rome}} and Caspar René Gregory, who saw the codex in 1883.{{r|Gregory|p=55}}

Wettstein believed the text of the codex was altered by influence from Old Latin manuscripts.{{r|Wettstein}} Hatch stated the manuscript is "one of the more important of the later uncial manuscripts of the four Gospels".{{r|Hatch|p=337}}

Richard Simon dated the manuscript to the 10th century. According to Montfaucon{{r|monti|p=41, 231–233}} and Scholz, it was written in the 8th century. According to biblical scholar Leonard Hug it is not older than the ninth century, as several of the letter-forms in the manuscript have not been found in any other manuscript securely dated to before the 9th century.{{Cite book | first=Leonard | last=Hug | others=David Fosdick Jr (trans.) | title=Hug's introduction to the New Testament | page=174 | year=1836 | publisher=Gould and Newman | location=Andover | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=9ixVAAAAMAAJ&pg=PA174}}

Tischendorf and Gregory dated the manuscript to the 9th century.{{r|Tischendorf|Gregory|p2=54}} Tregelles dated the manuscript to the middle of the ninth century.{{r|Tregelles}} Kenyon stated the manuscript must be not earlier than the 11th century, due to the formal liturgical hand and on palaeographic grounds. But Kenyon only saw Scrivener's facsimile, and his assessment was made only on the basis of this facsimile text.{{r|Silva-FamP|p=11}}

Omont advised it is impossible to give a precise date to this manuscript on palaeographical grounds, as there are many manuscripts written in the same style of handwriting, but they are not dated. The 9th century is just as possible as well as the 11th century.{{r|Silva-FamP|p=11}}

Lake proclaimed it is difficult to prove it was written earlier than the year 1000, and it is perhaps as late as the middle of the eleventh century.{{r|Silva-FamP|p=10}} This assessment was based rather on the textual dependency from other manuscript members of family Π, than on palaeographical grounds. According to Lake, Minuscule 1219 represents a text of family Π in its earlier stage as opposed to Codex Cyprius. Cyprius could have been copied from Minuscule 1219, or from a copy of Minuscule 1219 (Silva Lake's hypothetical codex b). Minuscule 1219 can hardly have written before the year 980 or long after 990, and so as a result Codex Cyprius can hardly be dated long before the year 1000.{{r|Silva-FamP|p=36}}

Hatch argued the letters Β, Δ, Κ, Λ, Μ, Ξ, Π, Υ, Φ, Χ, Ψ, and Ω have forms which are characteristic of the late 10th or the early 11th century CE.{{r|Hatch}} Hatch also noted the handwriting of the codex bears a striking general resemblance to that of three Gospel lectionaries of the 10th and 11th centuries: ℓ 3, ℓ 296, and ℓ 1599. On the other hand, no such likeness exists between the codex and uncial manuscripts of the New Testament which were written in the 9th century. As such, Hatch argued the manuscript should be dated to about 1000.{{r|Hatch}}

Kenyon,{{r|Kenyon}} Kurt Aland{{r|Aland}} and biblical scholar Bruce Metzger dated it to the 9th century.{{r|Ehrman}} The manuscript is now dated by the Institute for New Testament Textual Research (INTF) to the 9th century.{{r|INTF}}

The codex is currently located in the National Library of France (Gr. 63) in Paris.{{r|Aland}}{{Cite web | title=Liste Handschriften | publisher=Institute for New Testament Textual Research | location=Münster | url=http://intf.uni-muenster.de/vmr/NTVMR/ListeHandschriften.php?ObjID=20017 | access-date=1 February 2023 }}
