Description
The manuscript is a fragment of one leaf, written in one column per page.
The surviving text is of Romans, verses 1:1-7. The manuscript was written very carelessly. The handwriting is crude and irregular, and the copy contains some irregular spellings. A part of verse 6 is omitted (εν οις εστε και υμεις κλητοι who are called to belong to).B. P. Grenfell & A. S. Hunt, Oxyrhynchus Papyri II (1899), p. 8.
The nomina sacra are written in an abbreviated way.
The Greek text of this codex is a representative of the Alexandrian text-type. Aland placed it in Category I. The manuscript is too brief for certainty. The only variant of any importance is Χριστου Ιησου in Rom 1:7, where the manuscripts all have the reverse order.B. P. Grenfell & A. S. Hunt, Oxyrhynchus Papyri II (1899), p. 9.
History
The papyrus was found tied up with a contract dated in 316 A.D., and other documents of the same period.
It was discovered in Oxyrhynchus, Egypt, and is currently housed at the Houghton Library of the Harvard University (Semitic Museum Inv. 2218), Cambridge (Massachusetts).{{Cite web|url=http://intf.uni-muenster.de/vmr/NTVMR/ListeHandschriften.php?ObjID=10010|title=Handschriftenliste|publisher=Institute for New Testament Textual Research|access-date=23 August 2011|location=Münster}}
