Papyrus 15 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), designated as 𝔓15, is an early copy of the New Testament in Greek. It was part of a papyrus manuscript containing the Pauline letters. It contains 1 Corinthians 7:18–8:4.[1] The manuscript has been palaeographically assigned either to the 3rd century[2] or the fourth century.[3]
Description
[edit]The manuscript is written in a competent literary hand that is sometimes described as belonging to the "severe style."[4] There are about 37-38 lines per page. 𝔓15 and 𝔓16 were almost certainly part of the same manuscript.[5]
The Greek text of this codex is probably a representative of the Alexandrian text-type, however the text is too brief to determine this exactly. Aland placed it in Category I.[6] It is currently housed at the Bibliotheca Alexandrina (BAAM 0543) in Alexandria.[7]
