Über diesen Titel
The Septuagint (or "LXX" ) is the Greek version of the Old Testament. It is a translation of the Hebrew Old Testament and certain Apocryphal books, which was written in the late third century BC by the order of Ptolemy II Philadelphus, the king of Ptolemaic Egypt (283 BC to 246 BC). Alexander the Great had spread Greek influence and language throughout "the known world" and the Jews of the area were losing their Jewish roots and tongue. This Greek translation was created for use by the Alexandrian Jews who were fluent in Koine Greek, but were no longer fluent in Hebrew.
The Septuagint is quoted in the New Testament by the Apostolic Fathers. The influence of the Septuagint on Christianity cannot be denied and should be studied by students of the Bible and religion. This translation of the Septuagint was written by Sir Lancelot C. L. Brenton and published in 1851. It was based on the Codex Vaticanus, one of the oldest surviving manuscripts of the Greek Bible. This version of The Septuagint is used by scholars and students of scripture, religion, as well, and Old and New Testament history.

One of the most hateful books i have read
i have no idea how anyone could read this book and be like: "oh yea, this is great! The God that's being talked about in this book is an awesome guy! We should have everyone base their lives on this!"
This book is beyond full of hate and disrespect for life as well as death. People should probably understand that one can't be holy when they are not whole.
A few highlights include:
- in death noone remembers thee.
- God takes pleasure in the ones that fear.
- some guys lost a battle - then they ran away with their pants off for some reason.
- jealous and vengeful God, same thing repeated into the oblivion, same as in the Qur'an or Torah.
- the amount of times dung is poured on people heads is too damn high!
- dark speech and golden chains. (David's "proverbs" being wrongfully labeled as proverbs)
- vineyard covered in weeds is seen as as a bad thing, when instead it's just nature reclaiming it's own. total utter disrespect for nature and natural processes, shows how all these are man made and there's no spark of divinity in here.
- God's wonders are him killing children, bringing locusts, pestilence, death, dark clouds, fire, you cannot escape from him, etc - i wonder what is everyone smoking when they think this is what a real god does.
- better to be stupid but fearful and believing, rather than knowledgeable and knowing - seeing how many "believers" are these days, i guess that was an easy choice.
- when fish reach salt water they can't live - really?
- Jonas - troll story.
- day of God = day of darkness - really?
- Ambacus gives examples of nature having a bad time because they have "no guide"
Not gonna mention the punishments and the sword and the men killed and the cities killed and the talks about how women are terrible, because honestly, i could have done better things with my time, and yet, i wanted to see what are the things on which humans based their lives on - for millenia. Just disappointed.
Imams, Rabbis, Priests - the only question i have is: "why?"
This comes after reading The Torah and The Qur'an. It's evident they are all talking about the same thing, and yet somehow, people have shed blood and fought for centuries in the name of The One True God. Quite a mockery of the arab people The Qur'an has been, but i understand. These books are long, ain't nobody got time to read and think for themselves, when there's such easy options telling you that if you only sacrifice some innocent life, spill some blood, get down on your knees, sit around all day and pray - then there's "redemption". Nobody even stopped for a second and wondered: "hey, would a true god really need billions of people to get down on their knees and pray all the time, because that stuff gets boring really fast"
Anyway, i guess it's all deserved. You've decided to worship and follow books written by little men, with little minds, and little imaginations about power and divinity, so getting lost is not something that was done to you, it was a choice. i guess you forgot that books are made so we can get to know the writers' worldview and their experience of life.
Good luck.
