Papyrus 106 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), designated by 106, is a copy of the New Testament in Greek. It is a papyrus manuscript of the Gospel of John, containing verses 1:29-35 & 1:40-46 in a fragmentary condition. The manuscript has been paleographically assigned to the early 3rd century.[1] The manuscript is currently housed at the Sackler Library (Papyrology Rooms, shelf number P. Oxy. 4445) at Oxford.[2]
Description
The original manuscript would've been around 12.5 cm x 23 cm, with about 35 lines per page.[3] Due to pagination being extant (gamma/Γ (=3) on the front and delta/Δ (=4) on the reverse of the leaf), this indicates that the manuscript was either a single codex of John, or had John at the beginning of a collection.[4] The text is a representative of the Alexandrian text-type (rather proto-Alexandrian), bearing familiarity to 66, 75, Codex Sinaiticus (א), and Vaticanus (B).[1]
