A short order for the delivery of wine as an 'agape' (charitable gift) from the monastery of Bawit, handled through the priest Athanasios. It is dated Pachon 30 of a first indiction, in the 8th century AD.
Agape here means a charitable distribution, typically from monastic stores. The opening Coptic words are damaged; ϩⲏⲕⲉ 'poor' is a likely reading but uncertain.
Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below (catalogued as Ordre de paiement de vin). It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
