Descrizione The Legend of the Septuagint
The Septuagint is the most influential of the Greek versions of the Torah. Many versions of a legend about the translation have existed since antiquity. This legend has been adapted and changed for many reasons: to tell a story, to explain historical events, and to lend authority to the Greek text for the institutions that used it. This book offers the first account of all of these versions over the last two millennia, providing a history of the uses and abuses of the legend in various cultures around the Mediterranean.
