Torah and Jewish Idea > Torah and Jewish Idea

I've been doing some study of biblical history and I have a question

(1/3) > >>

ftf:
I would like to know if Jews consider the Septuagint Mauscripts to be an accurate rendition of the Tanach.

mord:
THATS THE ONE THAT WAS COMPILED IN EGYPT? IF THATS THE ONE I DON'NT THINK IT USED .Lubab might know

ftf:
According to my sources it's the earliest complete manuscript of the tanach that still exists in complete form. It is however in greek not hebrew, according to my sources it was produced so that the romans could understand what the Jewish religion was about. But the earliest complete hebrew manuscript still in existance is about 700 years newer than it, if my sources  are correct.

Yes i think your right

I'm just wondering if Jews believe it to be accurate, because I am intending to base a study I'm about to do on it, but I do not wish to do so if Jews think it is inaccurate.
