Minuscule 585 (in the numbering Gregory-Aland) ε 125 (von Soden)[1] is an illuminated Byzantine Gospel Book.
[2] The tables of the κεφαλαια (tables of contents) are placed before every Gospel, numerals of the κεφαλαια (chapters) are given at the margin, and their τιτλοι (titles) at the top of the pages.
It contains liturgical books (Synaxarion, Menologion) and portraits of the Evangelists.
The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type.
[3] The manuscript was in Venice in 1560, and was probably purchased by Duke Alfonso II d'Este.
