This museum-quality \u003cstrong\u003eP75 replica\u003c\/strong\u003e reproduces a single leaf carrying two of the most vivid moments in John's Gospel: the recto (front) preserves the \u003cstrong\u003esecond sign\u003c\/strong\u003e, when Jesus heals a royal official's son from a distance with a word (John 4:46-54), while the verso (back) continues with the healing of the man who had been ill thirty-eight years at the \u003cstrong\u003epool of Bethesda\u003c\/strong\u003e and Jesus' words to those who opposed him, \"my Father is working until now, and I am working\" (John 5:1-23).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4 style=\"color: #aa8a6d; border-bottom: 2px solid #AA8A6D; padding-bottom: 4px; margin-top: 20px;\"\u003eTextual Significance\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eP75 is one of the most important early witnesses to the text of John, famous for how closely it agrees with the great fourth-century Codex Vaticanus — evidence that the wording of the Gospels was copied with remarkable care from the earliest centuries. This very leaf shows one of the best-known examples: between the list of the sick at the pool and \"a certain man was there,\" P75 has no mention of an angel troubling the water, the passage (part of John 5:3 and all of John 5:4) that modern Bibles now print only in a footnote or in brackets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4 style=\"color: #aa8a6d; border-bottom: 2px solid #AA8A6D; padding-bottom: 4px; margin-top: 20px;\"\u003eAbout This Replica\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis museum-quality papyrus replica is produced through an intensive, multi-week hand-crafted replication process on \u003cstrong\u003ereal Egyptian papyrus\u003c\/strong\u003e.
