Book excerpt: The provenance of P.Chester Beatty XIII and XIV is unknown according to the records of the Chester Beatty Library. Though all five leaves hear the same accession number (1501) and have been entered as Papyrus Codex. ) leaves of a papyrus codex of Psalms, the single folio does not in fact belong to the same manuscript as the four bifolios. The two hands, while of approximately the same period, are quite distinct. Other characteristics as well mark the folio as being unrelated to the four bifolios. Of further interest is the remainder of the entry: Found in a box of miscellaneous fragments of papyri, Summer 1957. Mounted at British Museum and returned to Library, August, 1958 - all of which means, that the two manuscripts in question were not part of the same acquisition as the Chester Beatty Biblical Papyri from Aphroditopolis edited by F.G.Kenyon. P .Chester Beatty XIV, numbered 2149 by Septuaginta-Unternehmen, contains Psalms 72:6-23,25-76:1; 77:1-18,20-81:7; 82:2-84:14;85:2-88:2.
