context_page_description: Codex Boreelianus, Codex Boreelianus Rheno-Trajectinus, designated by Fᵉ or 09 in the Gregory-Aland numbering and ε 86 in von Soden numbering, is a 9th century uncial manuscript of the four Gospels in Greek. The manuscript, written on parchment, is full of lacunae, many of which arose between 1751 and 1830. The codex was named Boreelianus after Johannes Boreel, who brought it from the East.
  The text of the codex represents the majority of the text, but with numerous alien readings. Some of its readings do not occur in any other manuscript. According to the present textual critics its text is not a very important manuscript, but it is quoted in all modern editions of the Greek New Testament.
  The manuscript was brought from the East at the beginning of the 17th century. It was in private hands for over 100 years. Since 1830 it has been housed at the Utrecht University.
context_section_description: The Greek text of this codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type, but with a number of singular readings. According to Bruce M. Metzger it is typical Byzantine text. According to Kurt and Barbara Aland it agrees with the Byzantine standard text 156 times, and 78 times with the Byzantine when it has the same reading as the original text. It does not support the "original" text against the Byzantine. It has 11 independent or distinctive readings. Alands placed it in Category V of New Testament manuscripts. It is not a very important codex, but it is an important witness of the Byzantine text-type. Hermann von Soden classified it as Kⁱ (now it is known as textual family E). According to the Claremont Profile Method it has mixed Byzantine text in Luke 1; in Luke 10 and Luke the manuscript is defective.
