This Bible commentary concerns the Greek versions of the Old
Testament, its literary and scholarly qualities, and use as a
source for later, English translations of the Biblical text. A
study rich in profundity and the author's decisive scholarship, we
find within this book a thorough, chapter-by-chapter comparison of
the earliest versions of the Bible in Greek. The order and
composition of the verses were arranged with the vocabulary
differences placed into charts, that the reader may understand all
with clarity. Much of Swete's thesis is concerned with the
differences between the Alexandrian Old Testament and the
Septuagint (commonly referred to as the LXX) - the earliest known
iteration of the Bible in Greek. These two versions of the Old
Testament differ in certain ways, and it is these divergences which
allow for Swete's most detailed commentary.
