GENESIS, EXODUS, LEVITICUS (Greek-English)

I have just published at lulu.com GENESIS, EXODUS, LEVITICUS (Greek-English) which is a translation from the Septuagint translated from the Hebrew language in about 270 B.C. by 70 Israelite elders in Alexandria, Egypt. God used the Hebrew language to write the Old Testament while He used the Greek language for the New Testament. This book is simple, beautiful, easily understood, and it is a translation that relays the true Word of God. It is in the form of prose to make the reading easy and interesting. God is mostly the one speaking in this book where our basic knowledge of everything in our life originated. Greek words are translated simply into their corresponding English word-equivalents. Transliterations are indicated in bold letters while additional words especially for grammar purposes are written in italics. Names of persons retain their Greek spelling in the nominative case. Names of places generally retain their Greek spelling; only few very popular places use their commonly used names. I translate the Holy Bible from Greek to English to help people understand the Word of God. I'm very grateful to God for giving me this very rare opportunity to serve Him in this way.

A very tedious work and sensitive in the sense that you should not just be translating in the way you want to for you might be going out of the message of God. May God give you the wisdom, knowledge, and understanding necessary in your work of translation.

Congratulations... another translation added. Perhaps, little by little, you'd be able to translate all the books in the Holy Bible. That is a very noble undertaking and I hope that you will succeed. May God give you all your needs in your translation work.

A very good accomplishment. I'm sure it's not easy to do that and I think it's a totally different one. It's good so that people have something to choose from. Considering that the Holy Bible existed for so many years now, only few versions could be seen in the market.
