This volume precedes the projected Historical and Theological
Dictionary of the Septuagint which is to offer historical studies
of Septuagint words, retracing their usage from early authors, over
koine Greek and the translation itself, into Jewish-Hellenistic and
early Christian literature. The earliest of these phases were the
object of a several workshops held between 2013 and 2017, the
proceedings of which now appear in this book. The papers focus on
the following key questions: what can we say about the meaning, the
usage and the semantic development of Greek words attested in the
Septuagint; where and how does the Septuagint use these words, and
to what extent do they correspond to their Hebrew and Aramaic
equivalents? Furthermore, to what extent can papyri contribute to a
better understanding of typical Septuagint words? The papers
combine the analysis of selected words and word groups with
considerations of method.
