Description

The work to which the fragment belonged was concerned with the interpretation of The Old Testament in the light of the New in a familiar typological fashion. There are few, if any, echoes of Biblical vocabulary and the subject matter appears to shift with kaleidoscopic rapidity. If the reading of the first person in cerso, line 1, the fragment would belong to a homiy or epistle rather than to a commentary.
