</p><p>In the first half of the 19th century it was thought to be one of the oldest manuscripts of the Septuagint. It is generally agreed that Codex Marchalianus belongs to a well-defined textual family with Hesychian characteristics, a representative of the Hesychian recension (along with the manuscripts <a href="Codex_Alexandrinus" title="Codex Alexandrinus">A</a>, 26, 86, 106, 198, 233).<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>

<p>The manuscript was written in Egypt not later than the 6th century. It seems to have remained there till the ninth, since the uncial corrections and annotations as well as text exhibit letters of characteristically Egyptian form. From Egypt it was carried before the 12th century to South Italy, and thence into France, where it became the property of the <a href="Basilica_of_St_Denis" class="mw-redirect" title="Basilica of St Denis">Abbey of St. Denys</a> near Paris.<sup id="cite_ref-Swete_3-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Swete-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> René Marchal (hence name of the codex) obtained the manuscript from the Abbey of St. Denys. From the library of Marchal it passed into the hands of Cardinal <a href="Fran%C3%A7ois_de_La_Rochefoucauld_(cardinal)" title="François de La Rochefoucauld (cardinal)">La Rochefoucauld</a>, who in turn presented it to the <a href="Lyc%C3%A9e_Louis-le-Grand" title="Lycée Louis-le-Grand">College de Clermont</a>, the celebrated Jesuit house in Paris.<sup id="cite_ref-Metzger_2-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Metzger-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Finally, in 1785, it was purchased for the Vatican Library, where it is now housed.<sup id="cite_ref-Swete_3-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Swete-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-19" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-19"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>19<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup>
