Important Artifact
The First Apocalypse of James hit the headlines again in 2017. However, this time, the document was found in the Greek language. It was in this language that the Apocrypha was originally written. The important document that was uncovered was together with a collection of writings that was known as the Oxyrhynchus Papyri.
The Oxyrhynchus Papyri
The collection of writings known as the Oxyrhynchus Papyri were originally found between the 19th and 20th century. However, only an estimate of 10 percent of these manuscripts were literary documents. Some of the scripts included topics related to taxes, trading, or censuses. Most of the writings were written in Greek. However, some were written in different languages like Arabic and Latin.
