"Grenfell, Hunt, Breccia, and the Book Collections of Oxyrhynchus" by George W Houston.
Abstract:
"In the winter of 1905-1906, Bernard Grenfell and Arthur Hunt made a series of three great literary finds while digging for papyri at Oxyrhynchus. In the 1990s, Maria Serena Funghi and Gabriella Messeri Savorelli published two articles that dealt with these finds. Here, Houston reconstructs the archaelogy Grenfell and Hunt's second and third finds, and argues against Funghi and Messeri Savorelli, that Breccia's find cannot have been a continuation of Grenfell and Hunt's second find."
A forum for people with knowledge of the Bible in its original languages to discuss its manuscripts and textual history from the perspective of historic evangelical theology.

Thanks Tommy,
