It is the principle source for the Greek text of Revelation that is used in modern Bible translations. In 1627, the patriarch of Constantinople presented the manuscript to King Charles I of England.

The text of Alexandrianus was published in 1786 by Carl Gottfried Woide. | + | '''Codex Alexandrinus''', or '''A''', is an early fifth century biblical manuscript kept at the British Library in London.
