Papyrus 107 is a copy of the New Testament in Greek. It is a papyrus manuscript of the Gospel of John, containing verses & in a fragmentary condition. It is designated by the siglum in the Gregory-Aland numbering of New Testament manuscripts. Using the study of comparative writing styles (paleography), it has been assigned to the early 3rd century CE. The manuscript is currently housed at the Sackler Library (Papyrology Rooms, P. Oxy. LXV 4446) at Oxford.
Description
The original manuscript would've had around 33 lines per page. The extant portion is too small to determine height and width. The handwriting script is either documentary or common. The text is erratic, and doesn't really agree with any major text-type, bearing most resemblance with Codex Washingtonianus (W).
