This is new, usually we are told of similarities to the Claromontanus (?) book canon descriptions?
p. 618-619
Where we have manuscripts containing more than one section of the New Testament the precise order of the sections was no more fixed than the sequences within each section. Thus we find manuscripts with the order ape, acp (as in manuscripts Alexandrinus, Vaticanus and Ephraimi Rescriptus and the Majority Text), pac (as in Codex Sinaiticus 9 and some minuscules), pea. What is not clear is whether this was because of a perceived ranking of the sections’ theological significance.
9 The order cpacr of Codex Sinaiticus is also found in the sixth-century Latin manuscript Codex Fuldensis and also in the Complutensian Polyglot.
C - is this a g for gospels
P - Pauline Epistles - Romans to Philemon
A - Acts
C - Catholic Epistles - James Peter, John, Jude
R - Revelation
Kirk says the order is different in eastern.
In the CP is Timothy Titus Philemon all before Hebrews.
