Papyrus 62, also known as "Papyrus Osloensis", is a copy of the New Testament and Septuagint in Greek and Coptic known as a diglot. It is designated by the siglum 𝔓62 in the Gregory-Aland numbering of New Testament manuscripts. It is a papyrus manuscript of the Gospel of Matthew and Book of Daniel in a fragmentary condition. Using the study of comparative writing styles (palaeography), it has been assigned to the 4th century CE.

Description

The original manuscript would have been a codex (precursor to the modern book) made of papyrus. It has only survived in a fragmentary condition, containing evidence of Matthew 11:25–30, Daniel 3:51–53, and some verses from the Book of Odes.[1]Template:R/superscript The Daniel and Odes portions are labelled as Papyrus 994 in the Alfred Rahlf's numbering of Greek Septuagint manuscripts.[1] The surviving fragments evidence around 13 leaves of the original codex. The text is written in one column per page, 7 lines per column, 7–12 letters in line.[1]Template:R/superscript It has diaeresis over the letter upsilon.[1]Template:R/superscript

Text

The Greek text of the Gospel of Matthew is considered a representative of the Alexandrian text-type. Biblical scholar Kurt Aland placed it in Category II of his New Testament manuscript classification system.[2] In Matthew 11:25 it reads εκρυψας along with Codex Sinaiticus, Vaticanus, Bezae, minuscule 33, and lectionary 2211. Other manuscripts read απεκρυψας (C, L, W, Θ ƒ1, ƒ13, Byz).[3] The text of Daniel represents Theodotion's recension.[1]Template:R/superscript
