second from line 2 of the verso, 𝔓 agrees with the Alexandrian text base. In lines 4 and 5 of the recto, the reconstructed text reads , in agreement with 𝔓 and with the , whereas the , and the Majority Text all have the alternative word order of ; however, this is not considered a significant variant. Since this fragment is small – about – it cannot be proven that it comes from a full copy of the Gospel of John, but it may be presumed that the original text was at least of near full gospel length, to be worth the extra care and time required in writing in codex form. On the other hand, the generous scale and format of the codex pages of 𝔓 are such that it is highly unlikely that it could originally have comprised the four canonical gospels; Roberts calculated that such a codex might have required 576 pages. 𝔓 is small, and although a plausible reconstruction can be attempted for most of the 14 lines represented, the proportion of the text of the Gospel of John for which it provides a direct witness is necessarily limited, so it is rarely cited in textual debate. There has, however, been some contention as to whether the name (Jesus) in the 'missing' portions of recto lines 2 and 5 was originally written as ; in other words, was it contracted to or in accordance with otherwise universal Christian practice in surviving early Gospel manuscripts. On the assumption that the nomina sacra were absent from 𝔓, Roberts originally considered that the divine name was more likely to have been written in full, but later changed his mind. This latter view is also the view of Larry W. Hurtado, with Christopher M. Tuckett maintaining Roberts' original opinion. The verses included in 𝔓 are also witnessed in Bodmer Papyrus 𝔓 – usually dated to the beginning of the 3rd century CE – and there is also some overlap with 𝔓 and 𝔓 of the 7th and 2nd centuries respectively. No two of the four contain the same exact text as reconstructed for John 18:31–38, but 𝔓 seems to represent an example of the same proto-Alexandrian text-type. Kurt Aland described it as a "Normal text", and placed it in Category I, due to its age. First publication C. H. Roberts (editor), An Unpublished Fragment of the Fourth Gospel in
