I would be interested to know if there are any LXX manuscripts that omit KAINAN in Genesis: Gen 10:22-24 and Gen 11:12-13. My knowledge of LXX textual...
... According to Swete's handbook A omits KAINAN in 10:22 and uses the form KAINAM in 10:24. Rahlfs confirms the latter but not the former, there are no...
Thanks for the info! The interesting thing is that the name KAINAN is not found in the Masoretic text. It has been argued that it is a Christian addition to...
... For what it is worth: there are Old Latin manuscript with and without Kainan in Genesis 11. Vulgate is uniform in rejecting Kainan. Cheers, Dirk -- Dirk...

Wieland, The name is also found in the Samaritan Pentateuch, Jubilees (Ethiopic for sure, but I do not know about the DSS fragments) and Josephus, so it is...
Wieland, Gen 10:22-24 and Gen 11:12-13:-- -- are not found in the Dead Sea Scrolls -- are not found in any of the pre Christian LXX manuscripts -- are only...
The sequence KAIKAINANKAI at Gen 10.22 is ripe for corruption and variation. If you want to see how much, check Wevers' Gottingen edition, which you can also ...
Thanks for your answers! ... Could you provide references? I can't find it in Josephus. In Ant. book 1 he explicitly writes: "Shem, the third son of Noah, had...
Weiland, Dang! Wrong Cain. You are right, the second Cain is not found in Josephus (or SP). Outside the Lxx, it is found in Jubilees. That would still, of...
... The relevant fragment is 11Q12 2. Only a few letters from each line have been preserved. These letters are compatible with the Ethiopic text at 4:13-14,...
... But this is not the Cain we are talking about, in chapter 4 we have the story of Cain and Abel. We need a Cain in Jub. ch. 7, where I read in the online...
Sorry about the wrong QYNN. I was thinking of the son of Enosh, not the son of Shem. My mistake. Let's try again. Jubilees 7 is not preserved in the Qumran...
Wieland W. and Ken P., The Cain under discussion was not a son of Shem, but of Arphaxad. The passage in the Ethiopic version of Jubilees mentioning KAINAM, son...
Ken, We're actually dealing with Jubilees 8:1-4. It is hard to tell whether the "he" in vs. 5 ("he took to himself a wife") refers to Arpachshad or Kainan, but...
... None of the Qumran fragments contain Jubilees 8. The extant parts of the Latin of Jubilees begin at 8:10. A Syriac fragment has most of 8:2-4. The Latin...
... Well, acc. to Gen 10:24, but acc. to Gen 10:22 he looks like a son of Shem. Perhaps the name was omitted at some stage to get rid of this problem? Not of...
Ken, I wonder of the Syriac fragment of 8:2-4 follows the text of the Ethiopic closely, or deviates. If it follows it pretty closely, we could assume with a...
Wieland, Ahhh. I did not notice that fine difference! It did appear to be a digression in Jubilees, and thus may not have been a part of it originally. Ken...

<Bill> Thanks. But even after reading the tutorial, I fail to see how I would search the LXX for, say all occurences of all forms of AGAPH, though it looks...

Hi, Take a look at Jonathan Cohen, The Origins and Evolution of the Moses Nativity Story (Brill: Leiden, 1993). I am also working on something in that area. ...
You might also want to study the version of Moses' life in Josephus. There are different details in it. They are not horrible incompatible with the MT or LXX...
