Lectionary 269, designated by siglum 269 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering) is a Greek manuscript of the New Testament, on parchment. Palaeographically it has been assigned to the 8th century. Scrivener labelled it as 175e, Gregory by 269e. It is a palimpsest, both the lower (older) and the upper (younger) text of palimpsest are the texts of New Testament lectionary. The manuscript has survived in a fragmentary condition.

It is a palimpsest, nearly illegible. The lower text belongs to lectionary 269, the upper text belongs to lectionary 1944. The text of 269 contains lessons from the Matthew 8:32–9:1; 9:9–13; Gospel of John 2:15–22; 3:22–26; 6:16–26 (Evangelistarium).

The text is written in Greek large uncial letters, on 4 parchment leaves (23.3 cm by 17.8 cm), in two columns per page, 21 lines per page. It has not accents, but there is some punctuation.

The error of itacism occurs, like interchange between Ι and ΕΙ, Ε and ΑΙ, Η and ΕΙ, Η and Ι (e.g. ΕΛΛΗΝΗΣΤΙ), ΟΙ and Υ, Ο and Ω (ΠΡΑΙΤΟΡΙΟΝ, ΣΤΑΥΡΩΝ).

The nomina sacra are written in an abbreviated way, there are also some abbreviations at the end of line.

1944 is written in two columns per page, 30 lines per page. It is dated to the 13th century.

The Greek text of the codex is a representative of the Byzantine text-type. It is very close to the Byzantine uncial manuscripts: E, F, G, H, K, M, S, U, and V. Manuscripts E, F, G, H, S, U belong to the textual family E, one of the oldest families of the Byzantine text-type.
