In terms of textual development and theology, it seamlessly integrates into the tapestry of literature during this era. Moreover, the Septuagint serves as the authoritative reference text when studying the ancient Christian reception of the so-called Old Testament. The essays compiled in this volume explore various aspects of the Septuagint's interpretation, focusing primarily on the historical and prophetic books. The subsequent two sections delve into the New Testament (Gospel of Mark, Acts, and Paul) and Patristics (Justin and Jerome, among others), addressing questions of textual criticism and theology. The concluding section is dedicated to exploring the patristic interpretation of Old Testament texts, encompassing Genesis 2-3, Genesis 28:10-22, Jeremiah 10:1-16, and Psalms. Additionally, this section delves into themes such as the notion of God and pseudo-prophecy, as well as prominent figures like Adam, Abraham, and Hannah. By examining these diverse perspectives, this volume offers a comprehensive exploration of the Septuagint's significance in the study of ancient Judaism and Christianity.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1043g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 155 x 232 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783161549175\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Martin Meiser","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44098964979962,"sku":"9783161549175","price":181.61,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/noImage_1_82bc9a28-c503-40a7-9155-831753323fe3.jpg?v=1672043469","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-septuagint-and-its-reception-collected-essays-9783161549175","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
