Physical Description
Vellum, about 9 ¼ in. by 6 3/8, consisting of 312 leaves, some of which, particularly near the beginning, are slightly injured by damp. The quires, 31 in number, arc signed with both letters and arithmetical figures; e.g. fol. 189 b, ܝܛ ܨܐ ܨܐ ܝܛ but in the first eighteen these marks have been carefully erased, except one on the first and last page of each quire. Neither the meaning of the letters written perpendicularly on each side of the numerical figures, nor their arrangement, is quite intelligible. In quire 31 they are ܥܛ; in 30, ܥ; in 29, ܦܐ; in 28, ܦܒ; in 27, ܦܓ; in 26, ܦܕ; in 25, ܦܢ; in 24, ܦܘ; in 23, ܦܙ; in 22, ܦܚ; in 21, ܦܛ; in 20, ܦ; in 19, ܨܐ. In the earlier quires they have been erased. The number of lines in each page varies from 27 to 40. Foll. 1 and 3 are more modern, and have from 23 to 26 lines in each page.
Hand 1 (major, East Syriac script):
The manuscript is written in a small, Nestorian character, and dated A. Gr. 1210, A.D. 899.
Hand 2 (minor, Unspecified Syriac script):

See additions.

- The term Bēth-Mautbē, found in the subscription, includes the Book of Joshua, Judges, Samuel, Kings, Proverbs, Ecclesiasticus, Ecclesiastes, Ruth, the Song of Songs, and Job. See Add. 14,440 .
- It may be not inaptly described as a sort of Syriac Masora, exhibiting all the more difficult words and sentences of the Biblical text, with the appropriate vowels and signs of punctuation, and accompanied by marginal notes, both critical and explanatory.
- On works of this class see the treatise of M. l’Abbé Martin, “Tradition Karkaphienne, on a la Massore chez les Syriens,” in the Journal Asiatique for Oct.-Nov., 1869, no. 54, p.245. He has some remarks on Add. 12,138, at p. 337, foll.

Additions
Addition 1 (Fol. 1b):
On fol. 1 b the Greek vowels have likewise been appended, viz. ܳ, ܰ, ܶ, ܺ, ,
.and ,. The diphthong au is indicated by a ܵܘ,
ܳܘ Examples:
ܬܗܽܘܿܡܵܳܐ, ܫܡܲܰܝܵܳܐ, ܒܪܴܵܫܝ̣ܺܬ݂, ܪ̈ܵܘܳܪܒ݂ܐܶ,
ܘܪܾܘܼܚܸܶܗ,
Addition 2 (Fol. 1b):
At the foot of the page there is an explanatory note the last line of which is
much injured. So far as legible, it runs thus:

ܐܵܕܳܡ ܐܲܰܒܪܗܡ ܐܝܣܚܩ ܐܫܥܝܐ ܐ . . . ܐ. . . ܕܗ̈
Addition 3 (Fol. 1b):
The marginal annotations chiefly refer to matters of pronunciation and

Sometimes they are explanatory of difficult words. For example: fol. 1 b,

Various readings and references to the Hebrew and Greek texts occasionally
occur. For example, Ps. cxxii. 2, fol. 140 b, ܘܐܲܝܟ ܥܲܝ̈ܢܐ ܕܐܲܡܬ݂ܵܐ ܠܘܿܬ݂ ܡܵܪܬܵܗ̣̇., the marg. has ܒܐܚܪܢܐ ܫܪܝܪ ܡܪܬܗ̇. On Ecclesiasticus, xxxvii. 10,

ܚܲܒ̣̈ܠܐ ܐܝܬܘܗܝ. Peculiarities in the readings of the Syriac
(Nestorian) schools are also referred to (foll. 120 a, 259 b, ܐܣܟܘܠܐ ܐܚܪܬܐ); in particular those of Nisibis (ܢܨܝܒܝܢ, foll. 18 a and 23 b, etc.), of Mār
Mārī near Seleucia
(ܒܝܬ ܡܪܝ ܡܐܪܝ ܠܥܠ ܣܠܩ fol. 10 a), of Mā-hūzā
(ܡܵܚ̈ܘܿܙܢܵܝܹܐ foll.115 b, 116 b, etc.) of
Aitīlāhā (ܒܝܬ ܐܝܬܝܠܗܐ
foll. 250 a, 256 b, 257 a, etc.), and of Kandūkē
(ܒܝܬ ܟܢܕ̈ܘܩܐ foll. 28 a, 69 a, 252 a, etc.).
In one note, fol. 8 b, the agreement of the schools on a certain point is
mentioned, ܠܦܘܬ ܐܚܝܢܘܬܐ ܕܡ̈ܠܦܢܐ ܕܐܣܟ̈ܘܠ.
Addition 4 (Fol. 310b):
On foll. 310 b and 311 a we find a series of notes, written by the same hand as
the rest of the book. The first three inform us that this books was written by
Babai the deacon, in the convent of Mār Gabriel (also called the
convent of the Confessors) near Harrān, in the year of the Greeks 1210
A.D. 899, when Mār
John (i.e., John III., according to Le
Quien, Oriens Christ., t. ii. Col. 1133. He died in the autumn of this
same year. Compare Assemani, Bibl. Orient., t. ii., p. 440, no. 56)
was Catholic Patriarch of the East, and Mār Jacob bishop of
Harrān and
Callinicus (%). The first note reads:

Addition 5 (Fol. 310b):

Addition 6 (Fol. 310b):
On foll. 310 b and 311 a we find a series of notes, written by the same hand as
the rest of the book. The third note reads:
ܒܪܗ ܕܐܒܐ. ܒܪܗ̇ ܕܒܬܘܠܬܐ. ܝܫܘܥ ܡܫܝܚܐ. ܐܠܗܐ ܫܪܝܪܐ. ܡܒܪܟܐ

Addition 7 (Fol. 310b):
The next two notes state that the book was written for one Dodon of
Dūra, who purchased it for his sons Sīsīn and
Makkīkā, by the former of whom it was collated and
corrected. The first reads:
ܦܚܡ ܕܝܢ ܘܬܪܨ̣̇: ܠܟܬܒܐ ܗܢܐ. ܕܘܝܐ ܘܫܠܚܐ ܕܟܠܗܘܢ ܐ̈ܕܡܝܐ. ܣܝܣܝܢ

Addition 9 (Fol. 311):
Then follow the words, "Lord, let not be withhold the reward of the five pairs (of
fingers) that have laboured, and of the two (eyes) that have exerted themselves,
and sown seed in the field of animals (i.e. on vellum) with the feathers of
birds (i.e. quills), through the strength of the Holy Spirit."
ܠܐ ܡܪܝ ܢܬܛܠܡ ܐܓܪܐ ܕܚܡܫ ܬܐܡ̈ܬܐ ܕܠܐܝ: ܘܕܬܪ̈ܬܝܢ ܕܐܨܕ. ܘܙܪܥ
ܙܪܥܐ ܒܚܩܠܐ ܕܚܝ̈ܘܬܐ̇. ܒܐܒܪ̈ܐ ܕܦܪ̈ܚܬܐ. ܒܚܝܠܐ ܕܪܘܚ ܩܘܕܫܐ.
Addition 10 (Fol. 311):
And, "Of a truth, O reader, just as the pilot rejoices when his ship reaches
(the harbour and is safe) from the storms and waves of the, sea, so too the
scribe rejoices at (reaching) the last line."
ܫܪܝܪܐܝܬ ܐܘ ܩܪܘܝܐ ܕܐܟܙܢܐ ܕܚ̇ܕܐ ܩܘܒܪܢܝܛܐ ܡܐ ܕܡܬܡܢܥܐ ܐܠܦܗ ܡܢ
ܟܝ̈ܡܘܢܐ ܘܓ̈ܠܠܐ ܕܝܡܐ ܗܟܢܐ ܘܐܦ ܗ̣ܘ ܟܬܘܒܐ ܠܣܘܪܓܕܐ ܐܚܪܝܐ..
Addition 11 (Fol. 311b):
On foll. 311 b we have, one of the ordinary anathemas, here, somewhat fuller
than usual.
ܟܠ ܕܝܢ ܕܫ̇ܩܠ ܠܗ ܠܟܬܒܐ ܗܢܐ ܕܢܩܪܐ ܒܗ ܐܘ ܕܢܟܬܘܒ ܡܢܗ. ܐܘ ܕܢܦܚܡ
ܡܢܗ. ܐܘ ܕܢܬܪܨ̇ ܡܢܗ. ܐܘ ܒܟܠ ܥܠܬܐ ܐܝܕܐ ܕܗ̣ܝ. ܘܠܐ ܡܗܦܟ ܠܗ ܠܡܪܗ ܗܢܐ ܕܡܢ ܠܥܠ. ܢܗܘܐ

Addition 12 (Fol. 311b):
Following the four lines of interlaced ornament, we read:
ܒܒܥܘ ܡܢܟ ܐܘ ܩܪܘܝܐ ܚܦܝܛܐ ܕܐܡܬܝ ܕܒܟܬܒܐ ܗܢܐ ܦ̇ܓܥ ܐܢܬ ܘܠܡ̈ܦܝܕܐ
