The Septuagint, often abbreviated as “LXX,” is the ancient Greek translation of the Hebrew Scriptures, created during the Hellenistic period following Alexander the Great’s conquests. As Greek became the common language across the Eastern Mediterranean, diaspora Jewish communities increasingly needed access to their sacred texts in Greek. This led to the translation effort traditionally said to involve 70 (or 72) scholars in Alexandria—hence the name “Septuagint,” from the Latin for “seventy.” While the famous legend in the Letter of Aristeas describes a miraculous, perfectly unified translation, modern scholarship recognizes the Septuagint as a diverse collection of translations made over time, varying in style and accuracy. 

The Septuagint is crucial for understanding both ancient Judaism and early Christianity. It was the Bible of many Greek-speaking Jews and became the primary Old Testament text for the early Church. New Testament authors frequently quoted from it, and it played a foundational role in shaping Christian theology and scriptural interpretation. 

Textual and Theological Insights from the Septuagint

One of the most significant contributions of the Septuagint is its value in textual criticism. Because it was translated from ancient Hebrew manuscripts—some of which no longer exist—it provides evidence for alternate readings in the Old Testament. For example, in 1 Samuel 17, the height of Goliath differs between the Masoretic Text (about 9’6″) and the Septuagint (about 6’6″). The discovery of a shorter height in a Dead Sea Scrolls manuscript supports the Septuagint reading, suggesting it preserves an earlier textual tradition. 

The Septuagint also reveals how ancient translators interpreted difficult passages. In Genesis 2:2, the Hebrew text is ambiguous about whether God completed creation on the sixth or seventh day. The Septuagint clarifies this by stating the work was finished on the sixth day, emphasizing a full Sabbath rest. This shows translators were not merely copying text but engaging theologically with it. 

How to Study the Septuagint Today

Modern readers can access the Septuagint through various resources. For those interested in the original Greek, Rahlfs’ edition is a standard printed version, while the Göttingen Septuagint offers a more critical, scholarly edition. In English, the New English Translation of the Septuagint (NETS) aims to reflect the Greek translation’s style and structure, while the Alexandrian Codex (or Lexham English Septuagint) is based on Codex Vaticanus and provides a readable, flowing translation. 

For personal or academic study, comparing the Septuagint with the Masoretic Text can illuminate theological emphases, translation philosophies, and the interpretive traditions of ancient Judaism. It’s especially helpful when studying New Testament quotations of the Old Testament, as many are drawn directly from the Septuagint. 

What Does The KJV Bible Say?

The 

Septuagint (abbreviated as LXX) is the oldest surviving Greek translation of the Hebrew Old Testament, completed between the 3rd and 1st centuries BC. While the King James Version (KJV) Old Testament is primarily based on the later Hebrew Masoretic Text (MT), the New Testament writers—and even Jesus himself—frequently quoted from the Septuagint instead. 

What Is the Septuagint?

• The Name: “Septuagint” comes from the Latin word for seventy, referring to the tradition that 70 (or 72) Jewish scholars translated the Torah into Greek for the Library of Alexandria.
• The Language: It was written in Koine Greek, the common “street language” of the Roman Empire, making the scriptures accessible to the Greek-speaking world.
• The Content: It contains all the books of the standard Protestant Old Testament, but often includes the Apocrypha (Deuterocanonical books) and some significant textual variations.

Septuagint (LXX) vs. KJV (Masoretic Text) Comparison

When you compare KJV verses to the LXX, you often find that the New Testament “KJV” text actually matches the LXX better than its own Old Testament “KJV” text. 

Feature	Septuagint (LXX)	KJV Old Testament (MT)
Primary Language	Greek	Hebrew
Historical Age	3rd–1st Century BC	7th–10th Century AD (Standardized)
Goliath’s Height	4 cubits and a span (~6’9″)	6 cubits and a span (~9’9″)
Isaiah 7:14	Uses “Virgin” (parthenos)	Uses “Young Woman” (almah)
Psalm 22:16	“They pierced my hands and feet”	Often translated “Like a lion…” in some MT mss
Genesis 4:8	Includes “Let us go out into the field”	Omitted (implied)
Acts 7:14 / Ex. 1:5	Mentions 75 souls	KJV Exodus 1:5 says 70 souls

How to Use the Septuagint in Your Study

Using the Septuagint alongside your KJV can reveal why the New Testament is phrased a certain way. 

1. Cross-Reference NT Quotes: When you see a “KJV” New Testament verse quote the Old Testament, check if it matches the LXX. For example, in Hebrews 1:6, the quote “let all the angels of God worship Him” is found in the LXX version of Deuteronomy 32:43 but is missing from the KJV/Masoretic Old Testament.
2. Clarify Difficult Passages: Use the Septuagint Search to see how ancient translators understood Hebrew words before the modern era.
3. Study Chronology: Some scholars use the LXX to resolve genealogical timelines (like those in Genesis 5 and 11), as the ages often differ from the Masoretic Text used in the KJV.
4. Access Resources: You can read a classic English translation of the LXX by Sir Lancelot Brenton or use modern tools like the Orthodox Study Bible which pairs the LXX with the NKJV. 

The “Septuagint Fingerprints” in John 3:16

John 3:16 is a New Testament verse, meaning it was originally written in Greek. While there is no “Septuagint version” of the New Testament, John’s specific phrasing in this verse heavily relies on the vocabulary established by the Septuagint translators centuries earlier. 

The “Septuagint Fingerprints” in John 3:16

The most famous word in John 3:16, “only begotten” (monogenēs), is a direct link to how the Septuagint translates Hebrew concepts of “uniqueness” and “belovedness”. 

KJV Word	Greek (Original NT)	Septuagint (LXX) Connection	Impact on Meaning
“Only begotten”	monogenēs	Used in LXX for Isaac in Gen 22:2, 12, 16.	In the KJV, Isaac is called “only son” because he was the unique son of the promise. John uses this specific LXX word to show Jesus is the “Unique/One-and-only” Son.
“So loved”	houtōs	Used in LXX for “in this manner” or “thus”.	In many LXX passages, houtōs introduces an example. Rather than “God loved the world so much,” it likely means “God loved the world in this way“.
“Perish”	apollumi	Used in LXX for destruction or being lost (e.g., Ps 1:6).	This Greek word implies a total loss of well-being, a theme common in the LXX’s warnings of judgment.
“Everlasting”	aiōnios	Used in LXX for eternal or age-enduring (e.g., Dan 12:2).	John uses the LXX term for God’s eternal nature to describe the life given to believers.

How to Study This Link

1. Compare the Isaac Story: Read Genesis 22 (LXX) and notice how the Greek word for Isaac as “only son” matches John 3:16. This suggests John wants you to see Jesus as the “New Isaac,” the beloved son being offered.
2. Check Cross-References: Use a tool like the Blue Letter Bible to see every time monogenēs appears in the Septuagint versus the New Testament.
3. Read the Punctuation: Modern scholars using the Septuagint’s linguistic rules often argue that John 3:16 should be read with a colon: “For this is how God loved the world: He gave His only Son…”.

This is a major important point about forgiveness

Leave there thy gift before the altar, and go thy way; first be reconciled to thy brother, and then come and offer thy gift. -MATTHEW 5:24 KJV

Are You Your Own Worst Enemy?

I would start out by saying what Jesus Christ would want us to do? Pray and how should we pray? The Lord’s Prayer, and how often should we pray? Continually. Why do we use the Lord’s Prayer and not some other? The Lord’s Prayer covers all the areas that is important for our spiritual being.

When we pray the Lords prayer we ask to forgive our enemies, let God’s will be done, the kingdom to come. By praying the Lord’s prayer we let go of many thoughts we have in our head and give them back to God so we can have things revealed to us.

We must overcome resentment in our heart, and in a past video I shared about Dr. Jordan Peterson talks about how resentment can destroy us and we become our own very worst enemy and Jordan goes on to say that we must talk to people what we have resentment toward to overcome that resentment. Other people who lived in the past who talked about this is Jesus Christ and someone who is living now who talks about this daily is Brother Augustine, Dr. John MacArthur, Dr. Charles Stanley, Rev. John Piper and Pastor Paul Washer.

Women are looking for a fathers love

Women are looking for a fathers love. Its important that men understand women are looking for a fathers love and not get screwed. Woman more than anything are looking for a strong spiritual man to lead the future (the family). I think in many YouTube videos on biblical teachings, how young women are being hurt by men that are just looking to get laid instead of doing right and being in Christ and setting a good example of a strong man. We must be in Christ, hate no one, love all, forgave theses we resent, love what is right and support people who are walking with God.

Women need their fathers in their lives to be strong man to be good examples and not BETA men or weak examples of what a man should be. Its important that a man leads the way as Christ leads men, we as man need to fellow Jesus Christ to keep society from going to HELL.

Every day you can see or people watch how some men and women our living in hell without the right spiritual order then you will continue your hellish way according to 2 Peter. You can also find it in Romans. God will give you over to a reprobate mind.

And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient. – Romans 1:28 (KJV)

In Romans 1, Paul refers to something known as a reprobate mind. If you’re not familiar with the term reprobate, the literal definition in the Greek is failing to pass the test, unapproved, counterfeit.

Spiritual Order – In The Family and Church

God the father

Jesus Christ

Father (Men over women)

Mother (Women over children)

Here is Book, Chapter and Verse from the Kings James Version 1 Corinthian 11:2-16, But the main message is in 1 Corinthian 11:3: “³ But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God.”

How God Commands Us To Forgive Those Who We Have Resentment Toward.

All of us are tested everyday by our personal internal struggle coming from resentment of what happened earlier in our lives as children typically what our mother did to us, telling how our fathers were not good enough or driving us away from our fathers when we were children. We most go to the people that we have resentment against and forgive them. By forgiving our mothers or whoever we have resentment against, God will forgive us and we can return to the heavenly Father through our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

It was said if you don’t love everyone then you love no one. People today live like the Old Testament people did. We must forgive and love everyone as God Commanded us to do according to Matthew 22:34-40.

After Reading The Passage I would Recommend Doing A Silent Prayer

Its is said: Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth. Psalm 46:10 King James Version (KJV)

Jesus is an example of a Fathers loves

In a world where it is so easy to forget the importance of God, we must remember that He is holy and will not share His glory. America has forgotten this truth and it is time for us to re-examine our relationship with God and recognize that He is the one true God who deserves our full devotion and reverence. We must remember that He will not be taken lightly or ignored, but rather should be honored as the Creator of all things. Only then can we truly experience His love and grace in our lives.
