Papyrus 30 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), designated by 𝔓30, is an early copy of the New Testament in Greek. It is a papyrus manuscript of the Pauline epistles, it contains only 1 Thess 4:12-5:18. 25-28; 2 Thess 1:1-2; 2:1.9-11. The manuscript paleographically has been assigned to the 3rd century.[1]
Description
[edit]The manuscript is written in large uncial letters. The nomina sacra are abbreviated. The number of the pages suggest that the manuscript was a collection of the Pauline epistles.[2] It is a carefully executed manuscript.[3]
The Greek text of this codex is a representative of the Alexandrian text-type (rather proto-Alexandrian). Aland placed it in Category I.[1] According to Comfort this manuscript shows greater agreement with Codex Sinaiticus than with Vaticanus (in 11 out of 13 variants).[3]
According to Grenfell it agrees four times with B against א A, once with BA against א, twice with א A against B, once with א against B A.[2]
According to Comfort it was written in the early 3rd century.[3]
It is currently housed at the Ghent University (Inv. 61) in Ghent.[1][4]
