About this title

Synopsis

This Concordance of the Septuagint is founded upon the Vatican text as usually printed, but gives the variations where the manuscript itself differs from the printed editions. Various Readings from the Codices Alexandrinus, Sinaiticus, and Ephraemi are also given. It has been judged best to base the Concordance on the above uncial manuscripts, independent of the Complutensian and other printed editions, which are really no authority as to the genuineness of a reading. As the modern printed editions of the Septuagint are not quite uniform, and vary a great deal in marking the chapters and verses, it was necessary to follow some ONE Edition: that of Tischendorf (in two vols. 8vo. Leipsic) has been adopted. The Sixth Edition, 1880, has been used. An Appendix is added of words not found in the body of the work, giving readings from Origen’s Hexapla and Uncial and Cursive Manuscripts.
