The combined edition of Rahlf's version of the Septuagint, based mostly on the three main uncial manuscripts.

The text is small but the work is complete; for a few books, two versions of the text will be provided when the differences are so numerous and the textual critics have yet to ascertain which is most likely the more accurate edition of the LXX. There is a critical apparatus, but the text is not very eclectic.

Useful for the time being, and it says more about the state of LXX textual show more criticism that we don't yet have a complete alternative. Cheerfully, that day seems to be coming. show less
