=== Texts and manuscripts === There are fewer manuscripts of Revelation than of any other part of the New Testament.{{sfn|Parker|2008|p=227}} As of 2020, in total, there are 310 manuscripts of Revelation. This number includes 7 papyri, 12 majuscules, and 291 minuscules. But, in fact, not all of them are available for research. Some of them have been burned, vanished, or been categorized wrongly.{{sfn|Koester|2020|p=344}}{{sfn|Allen|2020|p=12}} While it is not extant in the {{lang|la|[[Codex Vaticanus]]}} (4th century), it is extant in the other great [[List of New Testament uncials|uncial]] codices: the {{lang|la|[[Codex Sinaiticus]]}} (4th century), the {{lang|la|[[Codex Alexandrinus]]}} (5th century), and the {{lang|la|[[Codex Ephraemi Rescriptus]]}} (5th century). In addition, there are numerous [[List of New Testament papyri|papyri]], especially {{Papyrus link|47}} and {{Papyrus link|115}} (both 3rd century); [[Lists of New Testament minuscules|minuscules]] (8th to 10th century); and fragmentary quotations in the Church fathers of the 2nd to 5th centuries and the 6th-century Greek commentary on Revelation by Andreas.{{sfn|Pate|2010|p=no page number}}
