Papyrus 100 is an early copy of the New Testament in Greek. It is a papyrus manuscript of the Epistle of James in a fragmentary edition. It is designated by the siglum 𝔓¹⁰⁰ in the Gregory-Aland numbering of New Testament manuscripts. The surviving texts of James are verses 3:13-4:4; 4:9-5:1. Using the study of comparative writing styles (palaeography), it has been assigned to the late 3rd or early 4th century CE.^[1]

The Greek text of the codex is considered a representative of the Alexandrian text-type. According to textual scholar Philip Comfort, 𝔓^100< "generally concurs" with the Alexandrian witnesses, 𝔓⁷⁴ א A and B.^[1] As of January 2011, it has not yet been placed in any of Biblical scholar Kurt Aland's categories of New Testament manuscripts.
