Codex Glazier

Codex Glazier, designated by siglum cop^G67, is a Coptic uncial manuscript of the New Testament on parchment. It is dated palaeographically to the 4th or 5th century. Textually it is very close to Greek Codex Bezae.

It contains the text of the Acts of the Apostles 1:1-15:3. The manuscript ends with Acts 15:3 on folio 155 recto while the following page verso has been left blank. The manuscript has some illuminations; at the end of the manuscript, on additional leaf, it has a picture with a great crux ansata (cross with handle), a motif appearing in Coptic textiles and stone sculptures. The picture is in colours yellow, red, and brown.

The size of the pages is 12.1 by 10.4 cm. The text is written in one column per page, in 16 lines per page, with wide margins. It has diaeresis; the text is divided according to the chapters, whose numbers are given at the left margin. The pages are numbered.

It is written in Middle-Egyptian dialect of Coptic language. Although the manuscript contains only the first half of Acts its non-fragmentary character is of special significance, for the study of the Western text.

The nomina sacra are written in contracted forms.

The text of the codex is a representative of the Western text-type, very close to the Codex Bezae. Currently it is main manuscript which supports the text of the Codex Bezae in the Acts. It is also only one Coptic manuscript with stricte Western text.

Acts 2:30 αυτου] + κατα σαρκα αναστησαι τον Χριστον και (according to the flesh to raise up the Christ, and)

Acts 2:47 ημεραν] + εν τη εκκλησια (in the church)

Acts 4:24 ακουσαντες] και επιγνοντες την του θεου ενεργειαν;

Acts 5:18 δημοσια] και επορευθη εις εκαστος εις τα ιδια;

Acts 11:2 it contains the long Western variant, contained by D and d only, "who also met them [the brethren] and reported to them the grace of God". The last part of it is supported by similar reading of G67 "and spoke to them of the mercy of God."
