The Septuagint is the translation of the Hebrew Bible into Greek and originated in Egypt in the time of the Ptolemaic kings. It became the basis for the Jewish religion in the Mediterranean world in antiquity and also for the dissemination of Christianity.
For the first time the first three volumes that contain papers that were presented at the international conference in Wuppertal, Germany, organized by the Septuaginta-Deutsch project, are available as a set at a special price. The volumes contain studies into the origins, the language and the history, including the Wirkungsgeschichte.
English summary: The Septuagint is the translation of the Hebrew Bible into Greek and originated in Egypt in the time of the Ptolemaic kings. It became the basis for the Jewish religion in the Mediterranean world in antiquity and also for the dissemination of Christianity. It was used by New Testament authors for their scripture quotations and it became the canonical form of the Old Testament in the Orthodox Church. It is also a mirror of its historical setting and a witness of religio-historical influences as well as of theological concepts and perceptions. It is the most important witness for the textual history of the Old Testament, apart from the Hebrew Masoretic text, because unlike the Qumran biblical texts it is complete. For the first time the first three volumes that contain papers that were presented at the international conference in Wuppertal, Germany, organized by the Septuaginta-Deutsch project, are available as a set at a special price. The volumes contain studies into the origins, the language and the history, including the Wirkungsgeschichte. German description: Die Septuaginta ist als judische Bibelubersetzung ab dem 3. Jh. v. Chr. entstanden. Sie wurde zur zentralen Grundlage des Judentums in der griechisch-hellenistischen Welt und in weiterer Folge fur die Verbreitung des Christentums. In textgeschichtlicher Hinsicht ist sie die wichtigste Quelle neben dem hebraisch-masoretischen Text, zumal sie, anders als die biblischen Texte aus Qumran, vollstandig uberliefert ist. Die Septuaginta-Forschung bildet einen eigenstandigen Bereich neben der Erforschung der hebraischen Bibel und liegt im Schnittfeld mit dem Neuen Testament und mit antiker Geschichte und Religionsgeschichte. Erstmals sind nun die ersten drei Bande, die aus den internationalen Tagungen des Projektes Septuaginta Deutsch erwachsen sind, im Paket zum Sonderpreis erhaltlich.
