About This Manuscript

Papyrus 46 (P46) is one of the oldest and most significant surviving biblical manuscripts of Paul's epistles. Dating to the late second or early third century AD, this Greek papyrus codex preserves extensive portions of Romans, Corinthians, Hebrews, and other Pauline letters, providing remarkable evidence for how Paul's writings circulated as authoritative Scripture in the first generations of the Church. This museum-quality P46 replica features Romans 8:15 on the recto and Romans 8:28 on the verso, two of the most beloved passages in all of Paul's letters, preserved on a single ancient papyrus leaf. An exceptional Christian gift for pastors, biblical scholars, seminary students, and collectors of early New Testament manuscripts.

Textual Significance

P46 is a cornerstone of Pauline textual criticism and one of the most cited early manuscripts in New Testament studies. Its textual readings have directly shaped modern critical editions of the Greek New Testament, including the NA28 and UBS5. For students of biblical apologetics, P46 provides powerful evidence for the early and widespread use of Paul's writings as authoritative Christian Scripture.
