Description | P.Grenf. I 6 Two parchment folios from a miniature codex containing Zacharias 12:10-11 and 13:3-5. There are 6-8 lines per column on the first folio (recto and verso), and 12 lines of text per column on the recto and verso of the second folio. The text employs a high-point for punctuation only once (after Zach 13:4 in l. 1 on the verso of the second folio), and several diaereses and nomina sacra appear. The high-dot is also placed after proper names (see the first folio l. 3 on the recto, and l. 7 on the verso, following the name "Israel"). Ny is abbreviated at line-end by a dash. The hand is described as a small, fine uncial. |
