    I absolutely love the Septuagint, I read from it along with the Mesoretic text and the Greek new Testament. In many parts, the new Testament quotes the exact words of the Septuagint. The one I recently worked on is:
    Paul's quotation looks exactly the same as the Septuagint👇
    Tanakh
    Psalm 19:4:
    בְּכָל־הָאָ֨רֶץ יָ֘צָ֤א קַוָּ֗ם וּבִקְצֵ֣ה תֵ֭בֵל מִלֵּיהֶ֑ם לַ֝שֶּׁ֗מֶשׁ שָֽׂם־אֹ֥הֶל בָּהֶֽם׃
    Septuagint 👇
    Psalm 19:4:
    εἰς πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν ἐξῆλθεν ὁ φθόγγος αὐτῶν καὶ εἰς τὰ πέρατα τῆς οἰκουμένης τὰ ῥήματα αὐτῶν..
    Greek New Testament 👇
    Romans 10:18:
    εἰς πᾶσαν τὴν γῆν ἐξῆλθεν ὁ φθόγγος αὐτῶν, καὶ εἰς τὰ πέρατα τῆς οἰκουμένης τὰ ῥήματα αὐτῶν.
    My translation,👉 "their voice went out into all the earth and their utterances into the ends of the inhabited land"

      Paul's quotation looks exactly the same as the Septuagint because the Origin wrote the Septuagint sometime before 240 AD. Paul's quotation looks exactly the same as the Septuagint because Origin copied Paul's 48 Greek words from Romans 3:13-18 directly into the text of Psalm 14. Origin even admits this. The Septuagint is nothing more then one of the columns of Origins Hexapla (six ply). The modern versions of the Septuagint and nothing more then the blending of codecs Vaticanus, Siniaticus and Alexandrinus. Catholic all. Don't be fooled.

    It should be noted that the Latin Vulgate follows the Old Testament of the Greek Septuagint. Why is this? Because the authors of Scripture most often quote from the Septuagint and not the Hebrew Scriptures. In fact, there are often times when the Apostles agree with the Septuagint against what we know as the Hebrew Masoretic text.

The Septuagint (LXX) translation is far more ancient than the Masoretic Text . . . the Septuagint is far more accurate as well. It is a more faithful representation of the original Hebrew Scriptures.

      My understanding is that Augustine pleaded with Jerome to use the Septuagint as the basis for the Vulgate but rather he chose to go with the Hebrew instead because of a strong Jewish influence. This is one of the reasons our current English OT is based on the Hebrew and not the Greek. Even when most of the NT references are to the Septuagint.

      The MT actually left out a whole line of text from a Psalm that the Square Hebrew and LXX preserved. The so-called masters of vowel memorization thus not only forgot vowels but consonants, in another place in the Psalms the Masoretes put in the wrong word whereas the Square Hebrew and LXX preserved the true word, and in one place in Isaiah the block-headed Masoretes left out consonants.
      Even several of the Paleo Hebrew portions within the DSS don't agree with the MT. When all 3 are against the MT, the MT is finished: "By the mouth of two or three witnesses let every word be established.

    The video is misleading. The Septuagint is a translation into Greek of _only the first five books_ of the Hebrew scriptures. The other books of the Hebrew scriptures were translated later, but not by the "Seventy" elders. These additional Greek translations are _misnamed_ "septuagint", but their translators are unknown.

    I have great respect for Pastor, but he's a little off centered on the braids thing. Firstly, the Apostle was addressing issues with a particular body in Asia Minor who were more concerned with their lusts & temptations than their sanctification. Peter addressed many issues. Braids, lots, beautiful hairstyles & ornaments represented pride, beauty, & auspiciousness to Peter. He wanted the folk to focus on Holiness & not their appearances. Secondly, those original writings were translated, changed in some instances & placed in the Canon we call the Holy Bible. Changed to make those of African decent conform to European standards & servitude-while denying & renouncing their own heritage. I wear my hair in locs & have for over 20 years. It was the Lord Who told me to grow them. Did you know that Yehshua (Jesus) wore locs? Let us rise from European assimilation & yokes.

    the Septuagint (LXX) does not reflect the Bible at the time of Jesus, which is seen from Josephus and others, to be no more than 22 (39 in the Protestant Canon).
    The oldest list of Books of the Old Testament as in the LXX, is found in Eusebius, Ecclesiastical History iv. 26, which is from Bishop Melito, about 180 AD:
    "I learned accurately the books of the Old Testament, and I send them to you as written below. These are their names: Of Moses five, Genesis, Exodus, Numbers, Leviticus, Deuteronomy; Joshua the son of Nun, Judges, Ruth, four of Kingdoms, two of Chronicles, the Psalms of David, Solomon's Proverbs also Wisdom, Ecclesiastes, Song of Songs, Job; of the Prophets: Isaiah, Jeremiah, the Twelve [minor prophets] in one book, Daniel, Ezekiel, Esdras. From which also I have made the extracts, dividing them into six books." Such are the words of Melito.”
    The only book that may be counted as "Apocrypha", is the mention of Wisdom. However, the Greek text, "Παροιμίαι ἡ καὶ Σοφία", can also be translated as "Proverbs even Wisdom", which it was referred to by many in the Early Church.
    The earliest Roman Catholic list of the OT Canon as in the LXX, is from "Pope Innocent", about 405 AD:
    “Which books really are received in the canon, this brief addition shows. These therefore are the things of which you desired to be informed. Five books of Moses, that is, Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy, and Joshua the son of Nun, and Judges, and the four books of Kings [1&2 Samuel, 1&2 Kings] together with Ruth, sixteen books of the Prophets, five books of Solomon [Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Song of Songs, Wisdom of Solomon, and Ecclesiasticus], and the Psalms. Also of the historical books, one book of Job, one of Tobit, one of Esther, one of Judith, two of Maccabees, two of Ezra [Ezra and Nehemiah], two of Chronicles” (Letter to Exsuperius, bishop of Toulouse)
    Only 5 of the additional books are in the copy of the LXX at this time.
    The Old Syriac Peshitta Version, of the 1st/2nd century AD, which was made from the Hebrew Old Testament at this time, did not have any of the additional books
    "“Thirdly, the earlier form [original] of the Peshitta, a daughter version of the Septuagint, seems to have omitted the additional books [apocrypha] and Chronicles. If it was of Christian origin, this would be a pointer to the restriction of the canonical list within the Church.” (P R Ackroyd and C F Evans; The Cambridge History of the Bible, Vol. I, pp.158-159
    “In the OT the Syriac Vulgate, commonly called Peshitta, is a translation made direct from the Hebrew…the Hebrew underlying the Syriac is in almost all cases simply the Massoretic text.” (Encyclopedia Biblica, Vol. IV, p. 5025)
    “In the OT the Syriac Vulgate, commonly called Peshitta, is a translation made direct from the Hebrew…the Hebrew underlying the Syriac is in almost all cases simply the Massoretic text.” (Encyclopedia Biblica, Vol. IV, p. 5025)
    The editions of the LXX over the years added more books to the Old Testament, which were not part of the Original Hebrew Bible used by Jesus Christ, and His Disciples, nor by any of the Writers of the New Testament

      The LXX is a translation; the MT is a text that is based on actual Hebrew manuscripts, and not a translation!
      The LXX can be good for understanding various readings in passages in the OT, but cannot be said to be more accurate than the MT. You say the LXX "is a closer and more accurate translation of the old testament", compared to what? The LXX has also been through a number of revisions, and was not used by Jerome for his Latin Vulgate, because he said it was unreliable, when he compared it to the Hebrew OT of his time.

    So they translated based on their own understanding rather than doing it word for word.... If that wasn't the greatest mistake I don't know what was.... Everyone on this Earth can have a different understanding Of each different thing.... so for them to translate it based on their own understanding of what they thought the overall thought was, rather than word-for-word, They basically turned the word of God into their own understanding and they should have left it as it was word-for-word.... That is so frustrating to know.... They should have left the word of God as it was And translated it word-for-word... Then translating it into their own understanding was so uncalled for and it makes me so mad.... When you go back to the Aramaic Version of The Bible written In English you can see deeper into the word of God than ever, Them translating it into their own understanding It's just as bad as somebody worshiping the God of their own understanding, God is Not limited to your own understanding he far surpasses our understanding as it is written, So why should it be written to the limitation of man's own understanding rather than leaving it word-for-word as it is.... People will disagree but I don't care.... It should have been left alone for it is the word of God not to be limited by man's own understanding..... This makes me so mad

      It is obvious that you only know one language. You probably have never even tried to study another language. It is completely misleading to always translate word for word. Languages change over time and have various idioms or expressions. When I was growing up, awesome was something special and appropriate for God. Today awesome is casually used and doesn't mean much more than o.k. Any older translation using awesome is most likely misunderstood by younger people today. What if I use English expressions such as "jump in the lake", " take a hike ", " if the shoe fits, wear it". If I am translating from English to another language, translating those expressions word for word won't work.

He made multiple claims which have long ago been falsified, and we have zero evidence of ANY Greek translations before Christ, except a fragment of Deuteronomy. The Septuagint is the work of Origen and Eusebius whose work was done mostly in Egypt where the Gnostic and Arian (Jesus wasn't God) heresies reigned supreme. They had the gall to put quotes of Christ from the Gospels into their work, making it look as though Christ was quoting from the Septuagint, something, regrettably, that all too many believe. In fact, Origen and Eusebius TOOK OUT some of Christ's words in their Septuagint, an offence which as you say they will answer for to Christ on the Day of Judgment
