Papyrus 15 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), signed by 𝔓15, is an early copy of the New Testament in Greek. It was originally a papyrus manuscript of the Pauline Corpus of letters, but now only contains 1 Corinthians 7:18-8:4. [1] The manuscript has been palaeographically assigned to the 3rd century. [2]

Description

The manuscript is written in a documentary hand. [2] There are about 37-38 lines per page. [2] Grenfeld and Hunt conjectured that 𝔓15 and 𝔓16 might have been part of the same manuscript. Both manuscripts have the same formation of letters, line space, and punctuation. [1]

The Greek text of this codex is probably a representative of the Alexandrian text-type, however the text is too brief to determine this exactly. Aland placed it in Category I. [3] It was the last papyrus classified by Gregory, in 1915. It is currently housed at the Egyptian Museum (JE 47423) in Cairo. [3] [4]
