the only surviving old testament in its entirety is the septuagint written in ptomelaic egypt, in koine greek
wrong
no you're wrong
incorrect
the LXX was originally only the first 5 books
you're following hearsay of a bunch of greasy rabbis
fun fact
guess who originally translated the first 5 books
want to know the answer?
Google translate
because it wasn't translated immediately?
Uh, no
lol
it was an arduent process that spanned several decades
only the 5 books were meant to be translated
by several translators from hebrew to greek
the Letter to Aristaeas only mentions the 5
the entire old testament was translated, jew
"several"
you mean 70?
what does LXX mean
yes, and all the translations coincided
yes yes
but only the 5 books
the rest wasn't by those scribes
it was added later by other scribes
how much do you think it takes time to translate from languages not even related?
to contain the meaning of the word of God
dude
read
the letter
about the LXX
it only mentions how they wanted the 5 books translated
they didnt ask for the rest
only the Torah
and?
so the rest wasn't supposed to be there
the LXX we have isn't the original
Iām gonna go watch cartoons and eat ice cream til 2 in the morning so byebye
Maybe I come back later
