The Berlin Genesis (Warsaw, University Library), designated as Rahlfs 911, is a 3rd or 4th century manuscript on papyrus. It contains the text of Genesis 1:18-38:5 in Greek. Michael Theophilos says "This manuscript is especially important textually due to the lacuna of Gen. 1:1–46:28a in Vaticanus."Michael P. Theophilos in Alison G. Salvesen and T. Michael Law, eds., The Oxford Handbook of the Septuagint, 2021, pp. 135–144.
