Apology for the Septuagint

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. This Apology may be regarded as a natural sequel to my Hellenistic Edition of the Greek Testament. Whilst acting as an editor, I felt it my duty, to abstain strictly from all general and argumentative reasoning. Trusting solely to the value and amount of the copious materials compiled from the LXX. I never presumed to interpose any comments or observations of my own. Whatever of comment or illustration may be found in that Edition, is always stated in the words and language of others.<br><br>But the time has arrived, when I may venture to break silence, and give vent to thoughts, which have been long brooding. After such a long and continuous study of the Septuagint, it was natural, that I should have come to some clear and definite conclusion, concerning its Scriptural and Canonical authority.
