Of Gods and Languages: On "When God Spoke Greek" (2013)

Timothy Michael Law's book "When God Spoke Greek" explores the Septuagint, the ancient Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible that served as the primary scripture for the early Church. Most Christians today are unaware that the early Church Bible was entirely Greek—both the Old and New Testaments—and that the Septuagint was regarded not merely as a translation but as a divine revelation. Law's account reveals how the Septuagint preserves older versions of Hebrew scriptures predating the established Hebrew Bible canon, making it essential reading for anyone studying Jewish or Christian biblical history.
