Editorial Reviews
Book Description
The essays presented in this volume reflect the present state of research into the latest stages of the literary development of the Hebrew Bible and the earliest period of its textual history. They reassess the relationship between the Septuagint and the Hebrew text of the Bible, and shed new light on the literary history and transmission of biblical books between 300 B.C.E. and 100 C.E., a crucial period for the history of the biblical canon.

The distinguished list of contributors includes Dieter Böhler (Germany), Pierre-Maurice Bogaert (Belgium), Johan Lust (Belgium), Natalio Fernández Marcos (Spain), Olivier Munnich (France), Adrian Schenker (Switzerland), and Emanuel Tov (Israel).
