Description | ZPE 93 (1992): 168-169 Papyrus fragment containing parts of an unidentified Christian commentary or homily. The fragment measures 6 x 4.2 cm, containing 7 lines of text. It appears to be from the middle of a folio; see ed. pr. Line final nu is abbreviated by a horisontal dash (see l. 4) and the text contains several nomina sacra. The textual content, considering the nomina sacra and the appearance of θάνατον (l. 4 of the verso) without an article as is common in the New Testament, indicate a Christian context. The text is unidentified. |
