Re: [ZION] Study Bible in Hebrew, Greek, etc.
BTW - I found out the name of the Bible with 6 different languages / translations: Origen's Hexapla. Here is an online definition of what it contained: The Hexapla was an important work of biblical criticism, the magnum opus of Origen (185-254). In his discussions with the Jews, Origen became aware of the significant differences between the Hebrew Bible used by the Jews and the Septuagint of Christians. Although he probably began the work while still in Alexandria, he completed it after moving to Caesarea. Most portions of the Hexapla consisted of six columns of parallel texts: (1) the Hebrew text, (2) the Hebrew text transliterated into Greek characters, (3) the Greek version of Aquila, (4) the Greek version of Symmachus, (5) the Septuagint, and (6) the Greek version of Theodotion. In the Septuagint column, Origen marked with an obelus those passages present in Greek but not found in his Hebrew column. When the Septuagint lacked material found in Hebrew, Origen would insert the passage from one of the other Greek columns (which were closer textually to the Hebrew) and mark the insertion with an asterisk. Although the Hexapla in its entirety was apparently never copied, the Septuagint column was copied repeatedly. Unfortunately, many copies omitted Origen's textual marks, thus introducing a significant amount of contamination into the textual tradition of the Septuagint. Only a few fragments of copies of the Hexapla or of its fifth column are extant. One of the most important witnesses to Origen's work is the seventh century Syriac translation of the fifth column--complete with textual marks--attributed to Paul of Tella, known as the Syro-Hexapla FWIW, Geoff [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10/29/02 02:52PM There was such a book that one of the Church Father's put together, but the name of it escapes me.

them in a couple of weeks.

the
Württembergische Bibel Gesellschaft) in Stuttgart, Germany. It should
be

the
Canadian Bible Society).
Greek: Greek New Testament, edited by Kurt Aland, Matthew Black, et.
al.
Published by the United Bible Societies, and likewise available from

I wouldn't mind something that included Latin or Aramaic as well.

Re: [ZION] Study Bible in Hebrew, Greek, etc.
Perhaps I should have explained, the Biblia Sacra that I picked up was the
Louvain Rescension - 1590. The font is, on a good day, smaller than 6 point
and not user friendly. So much for my feeble Latin voyage into the
antiquities...

A good Latin Bible (the Vulgate version, naturally) is Biblia Sacra Latina,
known
as the Sistine Version (because it was commissioned by Pope Sixtus V and
later
reworked a bit under Clement VIII. My version was published by Samuel
Bagster
Sons, and as usual, I got it at the Canadian Bible Society (we have a good
store
of the CBS that's right on the edge of the U of Alberta campus), but most
Christian bookstores will carry it. It uses modern Roman script, so isn't
hard to
read.

I use the Interlinear Bible by Jay P. Green with the The Strongest Strongs

a 4 volume set that doesn't have the Strong numbers in it and there is a
one
volue set that does. I had both and ended up selling the 4 volume set
because I liked having the Strongs information in the book. Both sets use
what I believe is called the literal translation of the bible, somewhat
different than the KJV.
You just have to have good eyes or a good pair of glasses to use it. While
this approach doesn't necessarily teach you the language fundamentals, it
does give you insights into the Hebrew and Greek word applications.
I have picked up an old Latin bible and a basic teach yourself Latin book
and got thoroughly annoyed because challenge of reading the old latin text

Re: [ZION] Study Bible in Hebrew, Greek, etc.
That's true -- the font size is small. Mine is the same, and it's my one
complaint -- with my middle-aged eyes I need a magnifying glass.
