Research is in constant evolution. Each generation needs an up to-date review of the status quaestionis of the current discipline, and in the last few decades the Septuagint has experienced a new renaissance as the Bible of Hellenistic Jews and first Christians, and a privileged witness of the genuine Hebrew Bible, as attested by some Qumran documents. This handbook is the most recent introduction to the main topics of the Septuagint, written by renowned scholars from across the globe, and is an indispensable tool to navigate through the complex history of the biblical text. * NATALIO FERNÁNDEZ MARCOS, EMERITUS RESEARCH PROFESSOR.
