Papyrus 967


Papyrus 967 is a 3rd-century biblical manuscript, discovered in 1931.
It is notable for containing fragments of the original Septuagint text of the Book of Daniel, which was completely superseded by a revised text by the end of the 4th century and elsewhere survives only in Syriac translation and in Codex Chisianus 88. The manuscript is also important for early variants, both in the text of the Book of Ezekiel and of the Book of Daniel.
The surviving 59 manuscript pages of P 967 are at present kept in five different places.
