Papyrus 10

Papyrus 10 ( in the Gregory- Aland numbering 10) is an early manuscript of the New Testament in Greek. It was published as Oxyrhynchus Papyrus II 209. The papyrus manuscript is the fragment of a leaf from the early 4th century, which was described in a column on each side. The surviving text includes Romans 1:1-7.

The manuscript was written very carelessly. The handwriting is irregular, coarse and contains some irregular expressions.

The Greek text of this codex is a representative of the Alexandrian text-type. Aland placed it in Category I. But the handwriting is too short for a reliable assignment.

It was discovered in Oxyrhynchus (Egypt) and is currently being kept in the Harvard Semitic Museum ( Houghton Library) under the signature MS Gr SM2218 in Cambridge.
