Having limited internet access, I'm late joining this party but feel I really should contribute. E-Sword is, in fact, the main reason I can enjoy sufficient...
The only thing I found in electronic Bible publishing a bit hard to swallow is the extra cost for the manuscript apparatus. You can get the latest Greek and ...
If the anti-christ empire locked up your pastor and took away all our bibles, etc. then you'd react with courage and heroism, no doubt. Well, the battle is...
Like many of you I have created a CD/DVD of e-Sword with modules on it that I regularly give away. What about requests from other individuals to get large...
I asked Rick this question a quite a few years ago. The answer was no charge is acceptable. When you consider Rick developed this program and maintains this...

... Neither do I. Essentially the Septuagint (LXX) is the Greek version of the Hebrew Tanakh, and that (the Tanakh) doesn't have the Deuterocanon. Originally...
... As a matter of fact, yes the deutero-canonical writings did come from the LXX manuscripts. The manuscripts that give us the LXX (Vaticanus, Sinaiticus, and...
The LXX hardbound copies include the second canon books. I have a copy of Rahfls at my desk. My basic LXX eSword module shows the second canon but my other...
... Sorry, but you have your facts and history all mixed up. The Septuagint was written in the third century B.C., commissioned by Ptolemy. It included the ...
The *Septuagint* (pronounced /ˈsɛptuː.ədʒɪnt/<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:IPA_for_English>), or simply "*LXX*", referred to in critical works...
Since the Septuagent was created by and for the Jews, it would be best to understand their take on the Deuterocanon. They saw the extra books as profitable to...
You're comparing apples to oranges here. You are referring to the contents of the traditional Hebrew/Jewish canon, which I agree with you, never had the...
I didn't mean to suggest that the deuterocanonicals were part of any Jewish canon. Jewish canons are not particularly relevant to me as a Christian. I am...
... Psaulm119, Here is a very basic and brief history of the Septuagint which comes from septuagint.net Septuagint - What is It? Septuagint (sometimes...
I have never said that (at least some) copies of the Septuagint don't include the deuterocanon, but that they included it as canonical. Books back then were...
I still do not understand why an unproven academic theory about a Jewish canon adopted at Jamnia well after the fall of Jerusalem should dictate what...
Where in scripture is the Jesus-cited-from-this-book test of canonicity found? Where in scripture is the list of canonical books found? Look, let's all admit...

All: I just became aware that YahooGroups is rolling out changes to the various groups. I don't have a reliable list of what those changes comprise of. (I...
Lets see....Jesus 14 times refers to the Law and the Prophets in such a manner as to suggest that no further clarification was needed for His listeners to KNOW...
