Description	Rahlfs 817, van Haelst 308, Aland AT141: Codex fragments with Jeremias 17–18, 46–47 Two fragments (A: 12.5 x 9 cm and B: 10 x 6.5 cm) of what appears to have been a codex. For the original page size, Fragment A is calculated to have been a ~27/28-line page, Fragment B roughly a 36/37-line page. The scribe had difficulties writing on the rough surface of the papyrus and across a bad kollesis. The text on the verso is somewhat rubbed and harder to read. While κύριος is abbreviated (lines 4, 29), [Ι]ερουσαλημ (Jerusalem, line 22) is not. The present text is different overall from both the Codex Vaticanus and Sinaiticus, and it has two additions not otherwise attested in the Greek (in Jer 18:11 on line 20; in Jer 47:9 on line 47-48). Nomina sacra: κς, κυ
