Papyrus 23 (in the Gregory-Åland numbering), designated by 𝔓, is an early copy of the New Testament in Greek. It is a papyrus manuscript of the Epistle of James, it contains only James 1:10-12,15-18. The manuscript paleographically has been assigned to the early 3rd century.
Description
The Nomina sacra are written fully, abbreviations are used only at the end of lines. There has been noticed the occurrence of the ungrammatical αποσκιασματος found also in Codex Sinaiticus and Vaticanus in James 1:17.
The Greek text of this codex is a representative of the Alexandrian text-type (or rather proto-Alexandrian). Åland placed it in Category I. This manuscript displays the greatest agreement with codices א A C, which represent the best text of the Catholic epistles, and then with Codex Vaticanus and Papyrus 74.
It is currently housed in the Spurlock Museum at the University of Illinois (G. P. 1229) in Urbana, Illinois.
