Minuscule 614 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), α 364 (von Soden),[1] is a Greek minuscule manuscript of the New Testament, on parchment. Palaeographically it has been assigned to the 13th century.[2] The manuscript is lacunose. Tischendorf labelled it by 137a and 176p.[3]

According to some scholars, it is one of very few witnesses of the Western text-type with complete text of the Book of Acts.[3][4][5] But Robert Waltz categorizes it with the Harklean Family (Family 2138) in a subgroup with its close relative Minuscule 2412. The earliest representative of this family is the marginal readings of the seventh-century Harklean Syriac version.[6]
