So, it has 1150 years less corruption. <a href="https://bethyada.blogspot.com/2007/08/should-we-favour-septuagint-or.html">Should we favour the Septuagint or the Masoretic text?</a> The Masoretes were rabbis who made it their special work to correct the faults that had crept into the text of the Old Testament during the Babylonian captivity, and to prevent . Answer (1 of 4): While Leslie's answer seems intuitive enough and for much of the Hebrew Bible is true, there are some parts of the Masoretic text that have either suffered in transmission or the condition of the text is at significant variance with the Septuagint. As Rabbi Akiba stated, "The Masora is a fence about the Law" (Würthwein, The Text of the Old Testament, 19). About 60% of the Biblical scrolls fall into this category. The dates you mention are basically correct, although it should be noted that although the "Masoretic" is quite late, it is a extremely accurate representation of the Hebrew texts from earlier times.

It will cover the history of how the Masoretic Text came into existence and why we believe the Alexandrian Septuagint translation of the Old Testament is beyond doubt, the most trusted and accurate translation. <a href="https://www.chicagojewishnews.com/how-accurate-is-the-complete-jewish-bible/">How Accurate Is The Complete Jewish Bible ...</a> However I take issue with the work of Jeansonne by suggesting that there are aspects of It was primarily copied, edited and distributed by a group of Jews known as the Masoretes between the 7th and 10th centuries of the Common Era (CE). When it comes to the issue of Biblical chronogenealogies, the Bible scholar Jonathan Sarfati believes that the Masoretic text is more reliable than the Septuagint and Samaritan Pentateuch. Posted on March 12, 2012 by Fr Joseph Gleason. 1) Proto-Masoretic: This consists of a stable text and numerous and distinctive agreements with the Masoretic Text. The Leningrad Codex is the earliest most complete surviving copy of the Masoretic Text. But in determining which is more accurate, remember the Masoretic text was put together, along with the Nikki Dots, (because the Hews were losing their ability to speak the language) around 800 AD! Original Hebrew. The 1947 discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls provided a significant check on this, because these Hebrew scrolls antedate the earliest Masoretic Old Testament manuscripts by about 1,000 years. The Septuagint of Job is about a sixth shorter than the traditional Hebrew text of the Bible known as the Masoretic Text. However, it is good to be aware of some of the Septuagint's limitations. But in spite of this time span, the number of variant readings between the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Masoretic Text is quite small, and most of these are . I know the MT dates 1000 years after Christ and if this is the case then shouldn't we go off of the Septuagint? the Septuagint is far more accurate as well. The catch here is that for much. However, modern textual critics believe that some verses in the Bible are erroneous in all editions of the Masoretic text. Is The Masoretic Text Accurate? The 1947 discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls provided a significant check on this, because these Hebrew scrolls antedate the earliest Masoretic Old Testament manuscripts by about 1,000 years. However, examples of the Masoretic Text style can also be found in the Aleppo Codex, a mostly complete copy of the Hebrew Bible from the 900s, and can be found in . (The Masoretic text is the traditional Hebrew text, and contains far fewer textual variants than the New Testament.) The Septuagint includes books that are not found in the Masoretic text, such as 1 Esdras and 2 Esdras. 3. The Masoretic Text is the version held as authoritative and used liturgically in most synagogues today. The Masoretic Text appears to have developed primarily as a response to Christianity. 24 Al- though the NKJV claims to be a faithful revision of the AV, . This Bible displays all the Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek words of the Bible in the Masoretic Hebrew Text and the Received Greek Text, with literal, accurate English meanings placed directly under each original word in interlinear form, with Strong's Concordance numbers over each original word, enabling the Bible student (whether knowing the . revelation was accurate and truthful and reached through the centuries accurately.

To scholars, these variants are uniquely valuable because of their antiquity: The Dead Sea Scrolls are a thousand years older than our earliest complete edition of the Masoretic Text. The problem with translating the 9th century Hebrew masoretic text family is the real Septuagint was a translation from a much older (thousand years) Hebrew text family from the 3rd century BC. The Masoretic text, on the other hand, had full transparency to the entire Jewish community worldwide and in fact was read from in the synagogue every week.

A further issue of much importance is that while we can take confidence in the accuracy of the transmission of the Masoretic text, this does not automatically carry over to the origin of the Masoretic text. the meaning remains the same). The Majority Text, also known as the Byzantine and Ecclesiastical Text, is a method of determining the original reading of a Scripture by discovering what reading occurs in a majority of the manuscripts. It was prepared between the seventh and tenth centuries A.D. based on earlier Hebrew manuscripts. These critics believe that a Bible translation must consult the Masoretic text as well as other ancient witnesses such as the Dead Sea Scrolls, Samaritan Pentateuch, Aramaic Targum, Septuagint, and the Latin Vulgate. The answer to the comment will be dealt with in 4 parts. The Masoretic Text has remained uncannily accurate throughout the ages. There are some 6,000 instances where this version of the Torah differs from the Masoretic text; the question for scholars is which version is more complete, or more accurate.
