Description

The manuscript is written in large upright uncial letters.[2]

The Greek text of this codex probably is a mixture of text-types. Aland placed it in Category III.[1]

In Matthew 12:25 it has textual variant ιδων δε (instead of ειδως δε) in agreement with Codex Bezae, corrector b of the Codex Sinaiticus, 892*, the Latin text of Codex Bezae (it^d), k, c, s, cop^bo.[3] In 12:32 it lacks words αυτω ουτε.[2]

It is currently housed at the Muhlenberg College (Theol. Pap. 3) in Allentown (Pennsylvania).[1][4]
