While you're at it explain why the Tetragrammaton only appears in the Hebrew, and in the DSS is written in Paleo-Hebrew, and why Daniel is dual-language Aramaic/Hebrew - if it's translated from Greek?

Archaeological Report on Magen and Peleg's Dig at Qumran
|
All this talk of ancient manuscripts just makes me wonder.... why couldn't god write the story on something a bit more... permanent... like, for example... titanium...?
The Ten Commandments were etched onto stone...

And...when you find a biblical manuscript which pre-dates the Septuagint then you can talk. Until then, thanks for demonstrating the point so ably. If this shit existed at all it was an oral tale until the Greeks came along and wrote it down.
Why don't you try demonstrating to me that the LXX existed prior to the Hexapla? Where's your evidence?
Oh come on, Danny. At least try.
The Septuagint was one of the six versions that Origen laid out in the Hexapla. Obviously it existed when he did so.  (December 1, 2013 at 12:09 pm)Minimalist Wrote: Oh come on, Danny. At least try.

'The difference between a Miracle and a Fact is exactly the difference between a mermaid and seal. It could not be expressed better.'
-- Samuel "Mark Twain" Clemens "I think that in the discussion of natural problems we ought to begin not with the scriptures, but with experiments, demonstrations, and observations". - Galileo Galilei (1564-1642) "In short, Meyer has shown that his first disastrous book was not a fluke: he is capable of going into any field in which he has no training or research experience and botching it just as badly as he did molecular biology. As I've written before, if you are a complete amateur and don't understand a subject, don't demonstrate the Dunning-Kruger effect by writing a book about it and proving your ignorance to everyone else!
