Papyrus 22 is an early copy of the New Testament in Greek. It is designated by 𝔓22 (in the Gregory-Åland numbering of New Testament manuscripts), and is a papyrus manuscript containing text from the Gospel of John. Using the study of comparative writings styles, (palaeography), the manuscript has been dated to the early 3rd century CE.[1] It is the only identified New Testament papyrus to have been written originally as a roll; not a codex or re-using the back of a scroll.
