The Papyrus Bodmer XVIII is part of a famous collection of biblical papyri found near the town of Nag Hammadi in Middle Egypt. This papyrus holds a particular place in the ten chapters of the Deuteronome (5th book of the hebraic Bible, or Old Testament and last of the Torah): among all remaining copies, it is the one of the two oldest (the other being at the British Museum).
