This book offers a thorough analysis of the translation technique
and theology of LXX-Amos, which will be valuable for those studying
LXX-Amos and for those doing textual criticism in the Hebrew text
of Amos. It analyzes the literalness of the translation, the
rendering of difficult and unknown words, and the rendering of
visually ambiguous phenomena, like homonyms, homographs, and word
divisions. The evidence suggests the translator worked from a text
very similar to the MT. He reveals his biases as he struggles with
the difficult and obscure sections of his source text. He exhibits
an anti-Syrian and anti-Samaritan bias as well as interest in
Gentiles, eschatology, and messianism.
