Septuagint-onlyists

Many of these “Septuagint-onlyists” mock the reasoned defense of KJB believers even while clinging to the fairytale of a BC LXX for which there is zero evidence

Questions concerning the so-called septuagint.

What evidence is there:

  1. for a B.C. Septuagint
  2. that a B.C. Septuagint was widely accepted and used?
  3. that B.C. Septuagint was commonly accepted and used by Jews?
  4. that Jews would adopt pagan greek (used for commerce) for their religious studies and practices?
  5. that if there was a septuagint as described in pseudepigrapha letter of Aristeas, that it was more than the Pentateuch?

Also:

  1. Of the many variants of so-called septuagints, which is the authentic one?
  2. Of the many so-called septuagint texts we have today, which one is based on mss that are older than codexes Alexandrinus, Vaticanus, and Sinaiticus?
  3. Is there evidence of a Septuagint mss prior to Origin’s Hexapla?

How did they fit on the Ark?

Only needed the prescribed number of each KIND, not every variation of species.

For example, from one pair of the dog kind we have all the varieties of breeds we see today.

Also, was no need to bring fully grown adult pairs of each kind, for example full size elephants.

Instead would be more advantageous to bring smaller juveniles on the ark that would be just coming of mating age when leaving the ark to take full advantage of breeding cycles post flood.

Compromise

There will soon be a time (if not already here) when 501c corporations will have to compromise truth and biblical authority in order to keep their tax advantaged status.

Of course most of these have already willingly compromised even without pressure to do so.
