Minuscule 424 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), Ο12 (in the Soden numbering), is a Greek minuscule manuscript of the New Testament, on parchment. Palaeographically it has been assigned to the 11th century. Formerly it was designated by 66a and 67p.
The codex contains the text of the Acts of the Apostles, Catholic epistles, and Pauline epistles on 353 parchment leaves (18.2 cm by 14 cm). The text is written in one columns per page, in 22 lines per page.
It contains Prolegomena (to the Acts and Pauline epistles), Synaxarion, Menologion, subscriptions at the end of each sacred book, and pictures. The Catholic epistles have subscriptions with numbers of stichoi. Three different hands made some corrections.
According to the subscription at the end of the Epistle to the Romans: επιστολη προς Ρωμαιους εγραφη δια Φοιβης διακονου της εν Κεγχρειαις εκκλησιας. (Epistle to Romans written by Phoebe, deaconess of the church in Cenchrea)
The Greek text of the codex is representative of the Byzantine text-type, but in the epistles it has been subjected to a thorough revision to bring it into conformity with the text of the exemplar of Minuscule 1739. Aland placed it in Category V. The text of the Epistles has higher value; Aland placed it in Category III. It is often agree with the codex 1739.
