Analytical Literal Translation of the Old Testament (Septuagint) Volume Five: The Apocryphal/ Deuterocanonical Books

This fifth and final volume of the “Analytical-Literal Translation of the Old Testament (Septuagint)” contains the “extra” books found in Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox Bibles as compared to Jewish and Protestant Bibles. There is much debate on whether these books are inspired by God or not. Only by reading them in a literal translation can you make a decision on this controversial issue. These books were written from 200 B. C. to 50 A.D. So whether inspired or not, they provide insight into Jewish history and thought shortly before and during the time of New Testament events and thus provide important background to the New Testament.
