A Reminder Why I like the ETC Blog

A Reminder Why I like the ETC Blog

From the Evangelical Textual Criticism blog:

[Hoskier] notes that three manuscripts of Revelation have a curious little drawing (or perhaps better a pictogram) instead of the word ‘the sun’ ‘ο ηλιος’.

…It is a curious little drawing and I am not sure it looks like a sun, much more like a circle with a tail, perhaps a comet.

Does anyone know what this about, are there other examples, other symbols?

sun

And a number of folks chime in in the comments.
