Légende
Fragment of the Book of Exodus, 8th century. The text of Exodus 21:16-35a on fol. 1 and 23:5b-21a on fol. 2. Written in Sahidic Coptic script, the biblical manuscript to which the bifolium once belonged was produced in Egypt, probably by a monastic scribe and perhaps in the Fayum or Wadi al-Natrun, where monasteries continued to thrive during the early Islamic conquest.
