Of all the Septuagint bloggers in the world, Brian Davidson is perhaps my favorite. He is now also a fellow BibleWorks user, as he begins his review of it here.

For this week’s Septuagint Sunday, I send you to Brian’s brief but informative posts on Septuagint terminology:

  • Here he explains the use of the word “Septuagint” and its ambiguities
  • Here he writes about what the number 70 (“LXX”) has to do with it

Thanks for your blog, Brian!
