Description

[edit]

It is a papyrus manuscript of the Epistle to the Romans, it contains Romans 1:24-27; 1:31-2:3; 3:21-4:8; 6:4-5.16; 9:16-17.27.

The Greek text of this codex is a representative of the Alexandrian text-type, rather proto-Alexandrian, Aland named it as "Free text", and placed it in Category I because of its date.[1]

This manuscript is closer to Codex Sinaiticus than to Codex Alexandrinus and Vaticanus.[2]

It is currently housed at the Papyrussammlung der Universität in the University of Heidelberg (Inv. no. 45).[1][3]
