Book Description:
|
The translation of the Hebrew Bible into Greek in the 3rd and 2nd Centuries BC gave rise to the Septuagint and enabled the spread of Biblical ideas around the educated world. While this book takes the form of a festschrift, it is actually a focused collection of articles by leading biblical scholars on the present state of Septuagint studies.
