Biblical commentary, [4--].

Papyrus codex leaf with a biblical commentary from Egypt. Front mentions the "bestower" of eternal life (Christ). Followed by a reference to the threefold interpretation of Scripture based on Origen's reading of Proverbs 22:20, a passage quoted in full. Back has the impossibility to relieve the plight (thirst) of those in Hades, probably an allegorical reading of the parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus.
