Updated LXX Resources (March 2013)

Rick Brannan

Hi folks.

Thanks to the stellar work of my colleague, Isaiah Hoogendyk, there are some updates to some Septuagint resources available.

1: Göttingen LXX has two resource updates. The 'L' (or 'Alpha') text of Esther, and an alternate version of Habakkuk 3. These alternate editions now have morphology added. This means every Göttingen LXX text resource now has morphology applied.

2: Septuagint with Logos Morphology (Alternate Texts) and The Greek-Hebrew Reverse Interlinear Septuagint (Alternate Texts). This material is the alternate Rahlfs material, which, for portions also in the Hebrew Bible, has an associated reverse interlinear with the Lexham Hebrew Bible. The reverse interlinear portion of this resource has been outstanding for awhile, and for that I apologize. If you have a license for it, you should be able to use it now.

This second item is particularly good news as it means work is progressing well on the reverse interlinear between Swete's LXX edition and the Lexham Hebrew Bible. Hopefully that will be coming soon, though at this point I doubt that it will make Q1 2013.

Thank you Rick! And thank you for remembering the other thread as well.

Certainly the alt-LXX coverage for the 'real' Bible looks great. The good Apostle Paul's similarity to some of Tobit probably doesn't merit coverage for the apo's. He didn't 'do' interlinear!

I'm very happy Gottengen's getting continued attention too.  A very nice group of updates.
