Yeah there are a lot of books now, but the Hebrew books that were translated to Greek but were rejected from Jewish canon were still considered traditional scripture for the Christian churches, any literature being passed off as scripture written in the NT era were considered Apocrypha and were...

Right. No greek translation yet the Jews were debating Christians over their greek translation. Makes total sense.

What philosophy merging are you talking about? The LXX agrees with the NT authors. I showed you some examples, what philosophy?? please explain

So... the unbelieving Jews debated with the Christians and you side with the unbelieving Jews.. I side with the Christians who say the Hebrew was being altered by the unbeliving Jews because it was mostly the prophecies that they were changing through Rabbanic paraphrasing so that they don't...

Since it contains the way in which the holiday of the feast of dedication is to be celebrated and for how long, it technology is a holy book, the 8 days oil miracle was made up much later.. the origin is written in the first two, the other 2 books I'm not too familiar with.

The Septuagint came from Hebrew, it was translated into Greek.. your King James is an English translation and guess what, it includes books that the Rabbis flat out reject and since it's not in hebrew it has no substance... right? The Jews chose to translate Hebrew to Greek looooong before they...

I own several Adullam film DVDs, the biblical histories and the stuff about freemasons and the history of the dollar bill are great, so I have already know about these characters and that Sinaiticus was a forgery... never does the producer of these films refute the Greek Septuagint so I don't...

I don't care about them, they have nothing to do with the Septuagint, there is no Sinaiticus Bible

No, what I did was disprove your theory that a made up manuscript found in 18whatever had some connection to the Septuagint... that's silly... and saying "Egypt" and "Alexandria" over and over doesn't change anything. Your whole argument is nothing but smoke.

This whole Sinaiticus bit you base your conclusions on.. I think I know where your bias comes from. The King James does not use brackets like other versions nor does it exclude NT passages that are not found in Sinaiticus, thus, because the Sinaiticus contained apocrypha books and other books...

1. The statement is at the bottom of the page of one of the photos. 2. I know it was Luthers opinion 3. The greek tongue was the common language, there was no tanakh before Christ, the scrolls were translated to greek, the early church used the greek translations of hebrew sacred text which...

It's odd that fathers as early as Pauls very own appointed bishop of Rome (Clement of Rome) quoted the Septuagint or that the early church fathers in general quoted from "imaginary" scripture found in the Septuagint more so than they quoted the older books of the Bible. You do know that...

The history notes say that the early church fathers treated them no different than the rest of the Old Testament until the Jews sometime after Christ created a canon that didn't include them... this book does not diminish that fact nor does it replace NT references/allusions to them with "it's...

Cannibalism, mass ritual blood sacrifices, tribes slaughtering neighboring tribes... they weren't all that nice. Plus from what I hear, there was peace until a few natives killed a group of sailers that had to stay behind because the ships were loaded with gold and stuff. Most died from...

This is a wonderful approach to the study of the "Apocrypha" from a protestant/Lutheran perspective. Has so many study notes, timelines, who's who, History, commentary, I encourage my friends here to read it.

That's odd because whenever any of the ante-nicene church fathers quoted scripture it was in agreement with the Septuagint sources. Find me a quote from any early ante-nicene Christian that comes from a protomasoretic, go find one of those early "Palestinian Christian Jews" for me.

lol, there were a good handful of early ante-nicene church fathers who believed that the Christ-hating Jews altered the Hebrew and that the Septuagint was God's blessed word to the Church

The Westcott/Hort text does not match the Alexandrian that are used in the Septuagint, you are making things up. I get it, you have a real hatred for anything that has ever come out of Egypt and surrender in praise any new texts that come out of Palestine, you distrust the early Greek church...

The Masoretic does not match the Hebrew Text that the New Testament primarily quotes from, they either quoted from the same source the LXX were copied from, or they misquoted the Hebrew scriptures all together. You are implying that either they misquoted the Hebrew or that because God can do...

Give it to someone, leave it on a park bench, donate it or something I guess. I couldn't trash them either, I have some pretty rough ones, some are inherited and really old.. I have about a dozen in room lol
