Papyrus 75
Papyrus 75 (
75, Papyrus Bodmer XIV-XV) is an early Greek New Testament papyrus.
Description
Originally '[it] contained about 144 pages ... of which 102 have survived, either in whole or in part.' It 'contains about half the text of ... two Gospels' – Luke (Papyrus Bodmer XIV) and John (Papyrus Bodmer XV) in Greek. It is dated in Nestle-Aland (27th edition, NA27) as being an early third century manuscript. It is one of the earliest manuscripts (along with 4) of the Gospel of Luke. 'The surviving fragment contains Luke 3:18-24:53 ...' An unusual feature of this codex is that when the Gospel of Luke ends, the Gospel of John begins on the same page.
It lacks text of Christ's agony at Gethsemane (Luke 22:43–44) and Pericope Adulterae.
It uses a staurogram in Luke 14:27.
Text
The Greek text of this codex is a representative of the Alexandrian text-type. Kurt Aland placed it in Category I. The text is closer to Codex Vaticanus than to Codex Sinaiticus. Agreement between 75 and codex B is 92% in John, and 94% in Luke. It concurs with 111.
