Examine P⁷² (papyrus 72) at the Vatican Library.

This manuscript is part of the Bodmer collection. Martin Bodmer was a wealthy Swiss citizen who used his fortunes to acquire a group of manuscripts from the Egyptian antiquities market in the 1950s. After his death, his foundation distributed those manuscripts to libraries around the world. The Vatican now possesses P⁷² at the Vatican Apostolic Library in Vatican City. It is catalogued there as Papyrus Bodmer VII-VIII.

P⁷² contains a mostly complete text of the first and second letters of Peter and the letter of Jude from the Christian Bible. It is the earliest extant manuscript containing those letters, dating from approximately the third century. The same individual copyist likely produced this entire manuscript. This is an important manuscript in the current reconstruction of the original text of the Christian Bible.
