| Description | Small fragment (4.5 x 2.8 cm) containing Psalms 1,6 and 2,1, five lines visible. Unrelated, unidentified recto text written in a different hand. Since the top and left margins of the verso remain intact, the papyrus was evidently cut to size for the psalms. It is unclear whether the text continued beyond Psalm 2,1. This combination of psalms is only attested here. A horizontal break between lines 1 and 2 indicates a fold line, suggesting the fragment was used as an amulet. |
