5.0 out of 5 stars worth the price
Reviewed in Australia on 9 October 2020

it came before the delivery date and i was suprised at how good it looked with the hardcover it took me a few weeks to open the plastic packaging and have a look inside. I forgot it had greek writing as well as the english translation beside it (and i don't read greek), and that it was in roman numerals and that it didn't have the book of enoch or the NT. Besides all of that, i love reading it and cross referencing the the KJV. At this point, it is priced the same as my KJV, and should be priced more with all that it's got in there.

The Septuagint is in both Greek and English. It’s wonderfully bound and put together. If you know your Greek or learning it’s great. The words are good size and central within this bible. As for the English verse and text it’s very small wording and you may find that disappointing if it’s a good size wording of the English text you require.

5.0 out of 5 stars Supremely useful didactic tool
Reviewed in Canada on 28 April 2024

Paper is of nice quality, pages are a bit thin but I don't find it difficult to read

English translation on the perimeter of the pages, Greek LXX in the center. The font is both readable in size and style with the Greek text being larger than the English

The Septuagint is the text Jesus cited as it was the common translation of the day, preserving the tradition free from corruption (Exodus 23:20-25, Isaiah 7:14)

Book cover is nice, it will look great in your library!

Essa versão é ideal para estudos mais aprofundados e para quem tá aprendendo grego arcaico. Não recomendo para leituras casuais, pois não é propósito desta versão, a não ser que você tenha pleno domínio do grego. Não há uma queixa a se fazer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brenton LXX is still best LXX...
Reviewed in the United States on 23 April 2021
Verified Purchase
The Brenton Septuagint was much nicer than I expected. Cover is nice and binding seems really solid. Pages are a slightly thicker stock than your usual Bible pages. Although, the last 60 pages or so within the Apocrypha/Deuterocanonicals section, in the back, seem to be a slightly different stock of paper like they ran out of the original. Different shade of white, more glossy, and slightly thinner and crinkly...annoying but is what it is.

Book lays almost full flat when open which is nice. I did a lot of research on which LXX English translation to go with and it turns out the Brenton, though the oldest, is still the best version to read and use. It's totally solid and traditional. For instance in the LES they opt for "humans" instead of the collective "men" in many places. Weird. The older English flows well alongside a KJV or Douay-Rheims.

I read one review of "missing verses" (which they didn't list) but I haven't run into that yet and if true there's plenty enough margin space on top and bottom to write in a verse or two. From what I understand, it's the more modern Septuagint versions that get wonky using other odd Septuagint variant texts. I trust the Brenton English over newer English versions.

I'm kind of wondering if that person got mixed up when comparing Masoretic based OT and the Greek Septuagint. There are MANY differences in the Septuagint but it's the Masoretic that doesn't line up with our Greek New Testamant, not the Septuagint! Jesus and His Apostles seemed to quote from the Septuagint renderings of Scripture, not the more "modern" Masoretic. There is evidence the LXX preserved what the ancient Hebrew readings had. Also many of the odd number discrepancies (like listed ages of people) you find in a KJV, RSV, etc are completely corrected in the Septuagint. Or are they?

To be fair, there is also much evidence that the Hebrew Msoretic of the KJV may be the more accurate over the Septuagint. "Discrepencies" in the Masoretic OT that happen with the NT may simply be that the Apostles at the time simply went with the LXX which had a much larger following in the Diaspora due to language barriers and universality of Greek. Also, a case can be made that where Jesus was quoting from the Masoretic at times may not have been intended to always be direct quotes but a fusion of various passages together in what is known as a "targum."

All that said, line up your KJV New Testament
and go line by line of Old Testament quotes and 9 times out of 10 they will match up word for word perfectly with the LXX over the Masoretic. Personally, I feel the Septuagint to be more trustworthy of what the original Hebrew said. Read Isaiah 65 in the LXX versus the Masoretic. The LXX Isaiah 65 is mind-blowingly prophetic of the future, Gentile, Christian Church. The same chapter in the Masoretic comes out to be this choppy, jumbled mess of a passage with very cryptically worded verses. This is very strange and you just can't help but feel immediately like the Masoretic was HEAVILY tampered with to obscure many of these Messianic and New Covenant passages. Isaiah seems to be the biggest "target" of this possible tampering.

Read and compare for yourself and you'll see exactly what I mean.

BUT, I do believe God has preserved His Word in English no matter which version you go with regardless. Overall, the differences between the two are not at all this HUGE chasm. But, this matter is a whole other topic that entire books have been written about!

Also keep in mind with the LXX, places like Psalms will not line up number wise with the usual Masoretic based Bibles out there today.

I saw the other reviews where, unfortunately, looks like a misprint and the reviewer was missing a chunk of passages and pages at the end of Psalms. I checked and I have all the Psalms in mine. As far as I can tell so far it appears I have all books intact. Something to check when you get yours.

It does have its cons though which may be a deal-breaker for some:

1. The English side font size is WAY too small! They should knock down the Greek text 2 font sizes and increase the English 2 font sizes. This is a really big issue that needs to be fixed! You'll find yourself reading the Brenton with the page only inches from your face which is odd because it's not a small sized book.

I would even accept a slightly larger dimension book if it meant larger English font.

2. Includes all Deuterocanonicals/Apocrypha (seperated in the back of the Bible) but not Enoch. No issue for me because I already had a copy of Enoch. The Ethiopian Orthodox Church preserved the Book of Enoch as canon which is a shame it was dropped elsewhere. Just my opinion, but I believe Enoch to be inspired Scripture as it appears to be the most quoted or alluded to (around 200 times) out of all the other books of the OT! Many of the criticisms of Enoch actually come from bad English translations. I believe Enoch should be included in these type Bibles.

3. The main chapter numbers (not verse numbers) located top corner of each page are in Roman numerals which can get real frustrating real fast unless you're really familiar with Roman numerals. I plan on writing in normal numbers above them over time to make referencing quicker.

I use the Septuagint regularly but even if you don't every student of the Scriptures, no matter what "denomination" of Christian you are, needs one in their library! There's just something very "special" about the LXX Bible when you read through it. It's like a time machine back to the days of the Apostles when they were expanding and exploring outward into the world preaching the Kingdom of God and the Gospel of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
