According to the colophon at the end of the Gospel of John, this
copy was completed by Ibrāhīm ibn Būluṣ ibn Dāwūd
al-Ḥalabī in Cairo. It is written in a clear nasḫī script;
the illustrations, provided by the Aleppo illustrator and
icon-painter Ğirğis bin Ḥanāniyā, portray the four
Evangelists, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, as well as 43 scenes
from the life of Jesus. The Arabic title, "This book is the holy,
pure Gospel and the illuminating, shining light", is given at the
end of the Gospel of John. This codex is currently on long-term
loan from the Pandeli family to the library of St. Gall Abbey.
