The Septuagint was the first translation made of the Hebrew Old Testament into Greek. It was begun over two hundred years before the birth of Jesus. It was translated from a Hebrew Old Testament text-type that is older than the Masoretic text, from which most Old Testaments are translated today. This is sad, for the apostles had access to both the Septuagint and to the proto-Masoretic text that was in existence in their time. Yet they chose to quote from the Septuagint—not the proto-Masoretic text.

Description
This hardback, well-bound English translation of the Septuagint was translated by L. Brenton, using King James English—so that the language would be familiar to readers of the King James Translation. It includes the books commonly known as the “Apocrypha,” which were part of the Septuagintal canon. Also includes the Greek text.
