Abstract
Harley 5647 (GA 72) is an 11th century Tetraevangelion manuscript, held at the British Library. This codex has been considered as a member of family Π. Its Matthean part is a catena commentary, while the other three Gospels include Gospel text only. Yet, the last chapter of the Gospel of Mark (Mark 16) stands out with special textual and paratextual features. In this article, I will analyse the character of Mark 16’s text. I will argue that this particular chapter has been revised using an exemplar close to the core group of family 1 type of text. I will also study its special Eusebian sections/tables assigned to the Long Ending, and the tradition behind the two scholia that appear in the margin, and notably the one that gives Jesus’ age and date of ascension “according to the Egyptians,” which has not been studied before. Finally, I will provide an apparatus of these scholia, based on their newly identified witnesses.
