Description

Gregory-Aland 𝔓82, P82, van Haelst 411: Gospel of Luke
Fragment of a folio (6,6 x 3,2 cm) from a one-column codex (originally 20 x 14 cm) with 23/24 lines per page. Uncial writing on both sides featuring Luke 7,32-34 (recto) and Luke 7,37-38 (verso). According to Orsini/Clarysse 2012, alongside 𝔓70 and 0169, this papyrus represents a “transitional phase from upright severe style to the early upright ogival majuscule”. If the original document had contained the complete Gospel of Luke, the fragment would have been part of a 250-page codex. τοις δακρυσιν, the position of which varies according to tradition, is missing from Verse 38.
