Stephen,
You made a statement that I want to speak with you about please...
Thought: Since the oldest full copy of the Hebrew that we know to exist is the Masoretic version, would the Septuagint be of any more value than it? I am wondering if the oldest copy of the Septuagint reflects a truer text than the Masoretic...I read once that the Hebrew version was altered to disguise some of the more obvious allusions to Y'shua being the fulfilled Messiah, while the Greek Septuagint retains the more original Hebrew text's teaching and shows it clearer...Also, do you think that the Apostles or Y'shua made any use of it, or do you say that they were not learned in Greek at all? I have heard before that a lot of the Greek New Testament quotations come from the Septuagint, but I have also heard that that is not the case....I would like to hear your thoughts on these things...
