For nearly ten years, Peter Arzt-Grabner regularly published in this journal bibliographical dossiers reporting on new discoveries in papyrology relevant to scholars of early Christianity. I am pleased to carry forward his valuable work and to offer here a survey of papyri published from 2020, the year of his last contribution, through September 2025. The material is organized into four sections. The first presents recently published New Testament, early Jewish, and early Christian texts. The second section focuses on the two newly published volumes of the Corpus papyrorum Judaicarum, with special attention to a second-century Jewish exorcism that appeared after the Corpus had gone to press. The third section offers a selective sample of recently published documentary papyri that sheds light on New Testament passages or the cultural background of New Testament authors. The final section concludes with a bibliographical update.
