About this title

Synopsis

An exacting, authoritative edition of the Septuagint's Later Historical Books, established on the Greek Old Testament text of Codex Vaticanus and supplemented from other uncial witnesses. A foundational reference for scholars. This volume presents I and II Kings in a rigorously edited Greek text with a full critical apparatus that records the biblical textual variants preserved in the chief ancient authorities. Drawn from an uncial manuscript collection and compared across leading witnesses, the apparatus invites septuagint manuscript comparison and practical ancient scripture analysis for both classroom use and original research. As a septuagint critical edition it balances textual precision with transparent methodology, making the Greek Old Testament text readable for students while supplying the evidence required by specialists. Its clear marginal apparatus and systematic sigla let readers assess variant readings for themselves, and the editor's restrained notes guide rather than dictate conclusions. Editors, translators and historians will appreciate the volume's focus on provenance and internal testimony rather than conjectural emendation. Historically and literarily, this work sits at the intersection of historical bible scholarship and codex vaticanus studies: it illuminates the transmission of biblical books through the early Christian era and deepens research into ancient Israel history. Essential for scholars and theologians, and useful as an academic bible reference, the edition supports textual critics, pastors, translators and curious readers tracing how scripture reached later hands. Accessible to casual readers interested in scripture's story; prized by classic-literature collectors for its documentary authority and scholarly pedigree. Edited by Alan England Brooke and rooted in rigorous philological practice, the volume belongs in university libraries, specialist collections and private shelves equally. A precise companion for students of textual criticism, translators and anyone mapping the history of the biblical text. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure.
