Description
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 × A, once with BA against ×, twice with × A against B, once with × 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]
