English/Greek side-by-side Septuagint in print (Lexham suggestion?)
For a long time I have wanted an English/Greek side-by-side Septuagint in print (like Brenton's, only not Brenton's). I am not aware of one that has been done for under $100 in the past 150 years. Looking for one that is between the $50 and $70 price range.
It's amazing to me that the software does this perfectly well, but there is still a great demand for this to be available in print for all of those places where I won't be carrying my laptop and cell phone with me (i.e. the choir stalls of my abbey church; or perhaps anywhere that I don't want technology to distract my reading).
So I am asking two things: is anyone aware of a product that fits what I am looking for? Secondly: is anyone interested in something like this besides me? If there is enough interest, perhaps we could create a Feedback listing for this and start gathering votes to see if there is enough monetary incentive for Lexham to pursue it. (I would be fine with the LES translation being the English half of the print)

Ok, I'll play dumb ... just 2 days ago I was looking at a print LES (or LEB, don't remember) with english ... I wondered if FL had authorized it or simply free-use.
Anyway Amazon offers what you describe (plus samples). So, I'm guessing theirs is not what you want (eg a Brenton with english). Personally, I'd seek out a Greek Orthodox with english (didn't look).

A Greek Orthodox would be my preference.
The only thing I'm seeing on Amazon is either English alone or Greek alone; Brenton is the only side-by-side. Unless I'm missing something.
