| Summary: | John Lee’s The Greek of the Pentateuch is a landmark contribution to Septuagint studies, impacting various areas of the field. The monograph is based on Lee’s 2011-2012 Grinfield Lectures at the University of Oxford, though there have been significant revisions and additional chapters (p. vii). The book is clearly and precisely written, organized into seven digestible chapters with sensible subsections, and supplemented with eight helpful data appendices, Greek and Hebrew word indexes, indexes of biblical passages and modern authors, and a bibliography. The main chapters stand alone as individual studies, though Lee makes a clear overarching argument through the sum of these parts. |
