Papyrus 108 is a copy of the New Testament in Greek. It is a papyrus manuscript of the Gospel of John, containing verses 17:23-24 (the end of the Farewell Discourse) and 18:1-5 in a fragmentary condition. It is designated by the siglum 𝔓108 in the Gregory-Aland numbering of New Testament manuscripts. Using the study of comparartive writing styles (paleography), it has been assigned to the late 2nd or early 3rd Century CE.[1] The manuscript is currently housed at the Papyrology Rooms (P. Oxy. 4447) of the Sackler Library at Oxford University.[2]
