Introduction

The numbering of the fragments a,b,c,d has been changed into 1,2,3,4. On the verso (hairside) remains of writing in a large sprawling hand of later date, in which ἐ̣ξ̣υχήθη (l. ἐχεχύθη) χ̣ά̣ρ̣ι̣[ς] ἐ̣ν̣ χίλεσίν (l. χείλεσίν) σ̣ο̣υ = Ps.44.3 can be recognized.

Notes

  • 7.

    The rest of the line was presumably left blank to mark the διάψαλμα

  • 11.

    κ written over first α of ἀνάστα

  • 14-15.

    Between fr. 2 and 3 four lines are missing if v.8 was written out in full

  • 23-24.

    Assuming that Ps. lxii was written in full, 6 lines must intervene between fr. 3 and 4

  • 24.
