What is The Oriental Institute Archaeological Report on the Near East: Second Quarter, 1936 about?
Four fragments of a papyrus roll of the Book of Deuteronomy in the Greek version have been found recently in a collection of Greek papyri in the John Rylands Library, Manchester. The fragments formed part of a piece of cartonnage-papyrus mummy wrapping-acquired by the Library in 1917 from an unknown source. They are dated by C. H. Roberts, who has announced them in his book, Two Biblical Papyri, to the second century B.c. and probably to the middle of that century. The fragments, then, are some three hundred years earlier than any other manuscript of any part of the Bible.
