A literary and social study of the translation of the Hebrew Bible into Greek - a work of seminal importance, without which there would have been no Western Jewish disapora, and no Christianity. Tessa Rajak places its production in historical context, and examines its role in the religious culture of Jews in the Mediterranean during this period.
