Description | P.Bodmer XX + IX; PB P, Apology of Phileas and Psalms Codex Papyrus codex containing the Apology of Phileas (P.Bodmer XX); Psalms 33-34 (P.Bodmer IX). Bodmer Lab description: P.Bodmer 20+9 contains the text of the Apology of Phileas followed by Psalms 33 and 34, copied in a different hand. P.Bodmer 9 ends in the middle of a verse (34:17), but the stop is natural, and a blank space is left, suggesting that the ending here was intentional and that no further text followed. Testuz argued that P.Bodmer 20+9 was a part of the codex consisting of P.Bodmer 5+10+11+7+13+12+8. The leaves are roughly the same size, but there is no clear codicological connection linking P.Bodmer 20+9 to the codex, although all these leaves seem to have been acquired at roughly the same time. |
