Codex Purpureus Sarzanensis

The Codex Sarzanensis, or Codex Saretianus, designated by j or 22 (in Beuron system), is a 5th or 6th century Latin Gospel Book. The text, written on purple dyed vellum in silver ink (as are codices a b e f i), is a version of the old Latin.

It contains Luke 24 and 292 verses of John (1:38-3:23; 3:33-5:20; 6:29-49.49-67; 6:68-7:32; 8:6-9:21), written two columns on a page, in round letters. John 18:36-20:14 was written by another hand. It has numerous lacunae.

The manuscript was discovered in 1872 in the Church of Sarezzano near Tortona. It was edited by librarian of the Ambrosian Library in 1872 at Milan (2nd edition, 1885). It was edited by Jülicher.

Currently it is housed at the Church of Saints Ruffino & Venanzio at Sarezzano.
