The book of Jeremiah.Counted among the prophets.Attributed author(s). Text(s) available. Useful links. The book of Jeremiah ranks among the latter prophets in the Jewish scriptures. The book was originally written in Hebrew, but the ancient Greek translation known as the Septuagint (abbreviated LXX) is also a very important witness to the text. The material is arranged in a different order in the LXX, however, than in the Masoretic text. On page 350 of volume 3 of his edition of the LXX, H. B. Swete offers a helpful chart that collates the material between the Hebrew and Greek versions. |
