Abstract
This article republishes a parchment fragment of a Greek ecclesiastical work written in a late fifth-century biblical majuscule script that had resisted previous attempts to identify it. Comparison with a surviving version in Syriac demonstrates that the fragment should be identified as the sole surviving witness to the original Greek text of the fourth- or fifth-century work of the church order type known as the ‘Testament of Our Lord Jesus Christ’ (Testamentum Domini nostri Iesu Christi).
