[1] The oldest part of the codex contains text from Genesis 39:20 to Deuteronomy 1:3, with gaps and later additions.

[6][7] The text is supplemented with the Niqqud and cantillation marks, the latter of which are the first example of a Torah manuscript to contain a formal system for signifying ritual chanting.

The edge of the left side of the columns were not leveled with the dilation of ending letters used in certain Hebrew manuscripts.

[9] The masora used is its oldest form, and differs from the terminology used in 11th and 12th century manuscripts.

The niqqud and cantillation trope are consistent with the Western-style Masorah called Palestinian, according to the textus receptus.
