Codex Monacensis (X 033) is a Greek uncial manuscript of the four Gospels written on parchment. Its designation is X or 033 in the Gregory-Aland numbering of New Testament manuscripts, and A³ in the von Soden numbering. The manuscript contains commentary from several church fathers. Using the study of comparative writing styles (palaeography), it has been dated to the 9th or 10th century. The manuscript has several lacunae, and has been rebound at least once.^[1][2]

The Codex's version of John's Gospel omits the account of Jesus and the woman taken in adultery (John 7:53–8:11): evidence that this story may not have originally formed part of the Gospel of John.
