Description and Table of Contents

Description

This classic study of the Septuagint is an indispensable tool. The specialist in Septuagint studies will find Swete's assessment of the versions, recensions, and manuscripts of the Septuagint invaluable. The non-specialist will be grateful for the extensive data Swete has collected, such as an analysis of the use of the Septuagint by the New Testament authors and by early Christian and non-Christian writers.
