Uncial 0189 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), is the oldest parchment manuscript of the New Testament.
Description
[edit | edit source]
It consists of a single vellum leaf of a late second or early third century Greek codex, containing only a small part of the Acts of the Apostles.[1]
The history of Uncial 0189 is unknown prior to its current possession by the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin.
Uncial 0189 measures 11.5 cm by 18 cm from a page of 32 lines. The scribe wrote in a reformed documentary hand.
Uncial 0189 has evidence of the following nomina sacra: ΑΝΟΣ ΠΝΑ ΚΥ ΚΩ ΙΛΗΜ ΘΩ ΙΣΗΛ.
The Alands describe the text-type as "at least normal". Uncial 0189 is an important early witness to the Alexandrian text-type, nearly always agreeing with the other witnesses to this type of text.[2] Aland placed it in Category I (because of its date).[3]
Aarne H. Salonius originally dated Uncial 0189 to the 4th Century CE. However this was later redated by C. H. Roberts to the 2nd or 3rd Century CE, which the Alands accepted.[4]
The INTF currently dates Uncial 0189 to the 3rd or 4th century CE.[5]
Kurt Aland included Uncial 0189 in the Critical Apparatus of the 25th edition of Novum Testamentum Graece (1963).[6]
Uncial 0189 is classed as a "consistently cited witness of the first order" in the Novum Testamentum Graece (NA27).[7] NA27 considers it even more highly than other witnesses of this type. It provides an exclamation mark (!) for "papyri and uncial manuscripts of particular significance because of their age."[8]
A transcription of the text of Uncial 0189 was first published by Aarne H. Salonius in Zeitschrift für die neutestamentliche Wissenschaft in 1927.
