    The book of Job, my favorite book.

    How can there be a difference if the whole bible is inspired? If Paul's words are not inspired, how can I believe any of his words? Is it up to me to pick which words are inspired and which ones are not?

    Septuagint

    The text of the Codex Vaticanus 1209 does not represent the original Septuagint according to the Greek Orthodox Church. The manuscript was twice re-inked, with new letters in place of the old. In the margin of this manuscript, it tells us they altered the reading. The Codex Sinaiticus (IMO) is...

    Septuagint

    I understand how the Septuagint compares with the DSS. There has been two men who have translated a singular Greek manuscript into English. This seems to be the source of the Septuagint for the last two hundred years. One of the men was Charles Thompson, the first Secretary of the Continental...

    Ian took my home of 20 years, but Helene and Milton were not so bad. Yes I have power back as of Saturday. The main take away from Deuteronomy 32 is that Moses gave credit to God. Deu 32:1-3 Give ear, O ye...

    Septuagint

    awelight greetings, sorry I never replied to your post. The Septuagint, as originally written, does not exist today. The Greek Orthodox Church never had its own bible. They used only their liturgy as the source of the Word of God. They claim their liturgy is based on the Septuagint, but that...

    The book of Job, my favorite book.

    A person ought to choose his friends wisely. I don't know that I have any friend that would sit in silence for seven days, and seven nights, upon the ground. Job had one thing right. Job said, God had sent them to testify against Job.
