At this point, I'm wondering if you read my reply, or properly understood it. I'm wondering, do you know how to read the Greek and Hebrew? | |

| Dec 17, 2024 at 16:31 | comment | added | user52771 | @OneGodOneLord Why did they go so far off the rails in the countless other areas in the LXX? I find no reason to assume they had an agenda when there's far more evidence that they just simply made mistakes. | |
| Dec 17, 2024 at 1:19 | comment | added | user90486 | Epimanes – Interesting info, but why do you think the LXX translators veered so far off the trail with Isaiah 9:5? What could have been the reason for doing this and leaving out the four titles? | |
