Insgesamt liegt mit dem neuen ›Verzeichnis‹ ein äußerst wichtiges und nützliches Hilfsmittel für die Arbeit an der Septuaginta-Überlieferung vor, für dessen Erstellung Detlef Fraenkel herzlich zu danken ist.
Detlef Fraenkel has used his specialized knowledge to the full. He has executed a meticulously detailed reference work that will be of inestimable value to text critics specifically but also to hermeneuts in general.
The result of Fraenkel’s mammoth undertaking is a superb new resource, for which he should be most heartily thanked and congratulated.
Bearbeiter und Institut kann kaum genug für diese Grundlagenarbeit gedankt werden.
Needless to say, this volume is an indispensable resource for all involved in biblical textual criticism and research concerning the textual history of the Old Greek version of the Jewish Scriptures. It is a gold mine of detailed textual information – clearly laid out and exhaustively indexed – and is a tribute to the industry and persistence of its editor.
