Ekthesis for the first letter of 2,23 is observed. For this pa- pyrus, however, these features can signal a variety of different degrees of division 45. Yet, comparing 3,22; 4,1; 7,1 and 10,22, where dicolon and ekthesis with a new line started are also used, these betray a major break. On the other hand, the same phenomena at 1,24 and 2,11 do not fit in the sense of a new section very well 46. At the beginning of 3,1, a middle stop is located. It apparently indicates a relatively minor break, not a paragraph. Thus, 3,1 is connected to 2,25 immediately. 2. Summary of Findings and Implications Summarizing my observations in these Greek codices and papyri, the results can be tabulated as follows: Comparative degree of break Comparative degree of break between 2,22 and 2,23 between 2,25 and 3,1 Codex Alexandrinus, A Relatively minor Relatively major Codex Washingtonianus, W Relatively minor Relatively major Codex Vaticanus, B Relatively minor Relatively major Codex Sinaiticus, a Relatively minor Relatively major Papyrus Bodmer XV, î75 Relatively minor Relatively major Papyrus Bodmer II, î66 Relatively major Relatively minor Table 1: Comparison of the Sense Unit Divisions in the Selected Manuscripts or, for colour image, FONDATION MARTIN BODMER, Évangile selon Jean (introduction and translation by J. ZUMSTEIN) (Cologny – Genève 2008). 45 Porter notes that this feature in î66 can be used to indicate ancient paragraph division, a conclusion to an episode, as well as the beginning of a new unit, but he does not include 2,23 as one of the “stronger divi- sions”. PORTER, “Pericope Markers ”, 167-168. 46 Thus, Porter claims that the marker at 1,24 indicates “a sub-unit within a larger unit”. Ibid., 167.
