Its a waste of time based upon how the Rabbinic community views it? It was authoritative to the Apostles, which means more to Christianity than Rabbis who reject Christ as the Messiah.The septuagint is considered non authoritive by the Rabbinic community. Why waste your time?
No, you are wrong Jesus said that if you want to know what the scriptures mean, ask the rabbis, because they do know what they mean. The Rabbis have always been the authority. That is what Jesus taught…Its a waste of time based upon how the Rabbinic community views it?

It was authoritative to Jesus, who taught from it.No, you are wrong Jesus said that if you want to know what the scriptures mean, ask the rabbis, because they do know what they mean. The Rabbis have always been the authority. That is what Jesus taught…
You are beginning to sound foolish, please don’t derail this thread with hogwash.No, you are wrong Jesus said that if you want to know what the scriptures mean, ask the rabbis, because they do know what they mean. The Rabbis have always been the authority. That is what Jesus taught…
Look you do not read the scriptures anyway, because you would know what Jesus had said. Why bother?You are beginning to sound foolish, please don’t derail this thread with hogwash.
Oh my you caught me, I never ever ever read the Scriptures! I’ve been busted!Look you do not read the scriptures anyway, because you would know what Jesus had said. Why bother?
This thread is not about me. If you want to start a thread about me be my guest…geometer,
Regarding…The septuagint is considered non authoritive by the Rabbinic community. Why waste your time?
Let’s think about this statement.
You, geometer, registered on a Roman Catholic forum.
You entered a Roman Catholic community more-or-less.
You read another’s post in a Roman Catholic forum.
Maybe, just maybe, that person is Roman Catholic.
Maybe, just maybe, that person is expressing their views which are going to contain, yes, Roman Catholic perspectives.
Now lets deduce something from the above.
Roman Catholic perspectives will be prevalent within this forum - this is very possible if not probable.
Roman Catholic perspectives may not *always *be identical to the perspectives of the Rabbinic community - very probable.
And you are seriously frustrated by this? That Roman Catholic views and Rabbinic views are not in perfect sync - this keeps you up at night?
Really, sincerely, what have you got against someone investing their intellect and their time into an endeavor of their choosing and sharing the result with other like-minded individuals? Really - this is what it boils down to - what is Copland doing wrong? Please, I ask sincerely, what’s wrong with this?
No one is forcing you to agree with ***anything ***on this entire site.
People have very different opinions - always have.
shalom,

Why is the Septuagint considered to be non authoritive by the rabbinic community?The septuagint is considered non authoritive by the Rabbinic community. Why waste your time?
The holy scriptures have always existed in hebrew, and were not perfectly translated into greek, which has caused Jewish tradition much grief. Hebrew can not be perfectly translated into greek.Why is the Septuagint considered to be non authoritive by the rabbinic community?
God bless,
So do you read Hebrew?The holy scriptures have always existed in hebrew, and were not perfectly translated into greek, which has caused Jewish tradition much grief. Hebrew can not be perfectly translated into greek.
Why so hateful?So do you read Hebrew?
No language can be “perfectly” translated into any other language.
But the key with the Septuagint is that the Holy Spirit was at work and makes it authoritative.
Of course the Rabbinic community will not believe this but then they also deny that Jesus is the Messiah.
So really, why should we listen to what the Rabbinic community has to say when they get the most important fact of Christianity wrong?
I could ask you the same question, yet I am not hateful, I am a Christian.Why so hateful?
So you way.Didn’t you know that it was the Rabbis that created the septuagint. The Rabbis created the text while under persecution. The whole text comes through the Rabbis.
The scriptures are the written Word of God, not what is in the mind of a certain group of people, no matter what they claim.Jesus said to depend on their knowledge of the scriptures. Hebrew only lives through Rabbis. If they should be taken away, in a very short time, no one would know what the scriptures say.
But you blew it off saying that this thread is not about you but you have made it about you.geometer,

No, your just another one with a weak identity. I haven’t questioned what or who anyone is in this thread, yet everyone wants to tell me what and who everyone is.Why should we take the word of a non-christian in a Christian forum?
Peter K said it well when he said;
But you blew it off saying that this thread is not about you but you have made it about you.
Did you know that only Jew’s directly in Palestine used what today is called the Torah? And that they were the over whelming minority of Jews everywhere? More over that the Jewish leadership never had a problem with the Septuigit until after the rise of Christianity?Why so hateful?

What Rabbi said this?Did you know that only Jew’s directly in Palestine used what today is called the Torah? And that they were the over whelming minority of Jews everywhere? More over that the Jewish leadership never had a problem with the Septuigit until after the rise of Christianity?
