There is now an app for reading an ancient text.
The Papyrus App “Picture it: EP” allows one to browse the pages of the oldest existing manuscript of the letters of St. Paul.
Professor Arthur Verhoogt, Associate Professor of Papyrology and Greek at the University of Michigan helped design the app.
“The text is the most ancient manuscript of the letters of Saint Paul that exist. It dates to about [the year] 200,” said Verhoogt.
The texts are kept in a secure vault.
