Papyrus 77 (in the Gregory-Aland numbering), designated by 𝔓77, is a papyrus manuscript of the Gospel of Matthew verses 23:30-39. It is written in Greek and has palaeographically been assigned a date anywhere from the middle 2nd century to the early 3rd century.
According to Comfort, Papyrus 77 together with Papyrus 103 probably belong to the same codex.
The Greek text of this codex is a representative of the Alexandrian text-type. Aland ascribed it as an “at least normal text”, and placed it in Category I. 𝔓77 has the closest affinity with Codex Sinaiticus.
It is currently housed at the Sackler Library (P. Oxy. 2683) in Oxford.
