note=Papyrus 75 (P75, "Papyrus Bodmer XIV-XV") is an early New Testament papyrus. It 'contains about half the text of ... two Gospels' [ [http://www.ewtn.com/library/SCRIPTUR/bodmerpapyrus.HTM Bodmer Papyrus 14-15 arrives at the Vatican] ] - Luke (Papyrus Bodmer XIV) and John (Papyrus Bodmer XV) in Greek. It is dated in
Nestle-Aland (27th edition,NA27 ) as being an early third century manuscript. It is one the earliest manuscripts (along with P4)Gregory (2003) p.28] of theGospel of Luke . 'The surviving fragment contains Luke 3:18-24:53 ...' Wilker] . 'An unusual feature of this codex is that Luke ends and John begins on the same page.' [Edwards (1976), p. 194] .The Greek text of this codex is a representative of the
Alexandrian text-type .Kurt Aland placed it in Category I. The text is closer toCodex Vaticanus than toCodex Sinaiticus . Agreement between P75 and codex B is 92%. [S.A. Edwards, "P75 Under the Magnifying Glass", Novum Testamentum, XVIII, fasc. 3, pp. 211-212. ]Notes
