Description

P.Vindob. G 29345: Fragment with Corinthians 6:16-17 and Hebrews 4:15
This fragment (4 x 5.6 cm) broken off on all sides contains the remains of 7 lines on the recto, and 6 on the verso. The recto quotes a section of the Pauline Epistles, 1 Corinthians 6:16-17. Hagedorn 2007’s expansion on the findings of the ed.pr. has identified the quote on the verso as Epistle to the Hebrews 4:15. He also declares that the sheet was originally a codex page.
