Description
The surviving texts of Matthew are verses 13:55-56 and 14:3-5: they are in a fragmentary condition. The manuscript has been assigned palaeographically to the late 2nd or early 3rd century.
Probably together with Papyrus 77 it belonged to the same codex.Philip W. Comfort, Encountering the Manuscripts. An Introduction to New Testament Paleography and Textual Criticism, Nashville, Tennessee: Broadman & Holman Publishers, 2005, p. 73.
