I don't remember what mine cost. I got it by mail from somewhere but I don't remember where. It has the Greek text plus the English interpretation in a separate line below the Greek text. The English is translated literally so the word order is different than the way we speak or read and write.

I'm a Bible junkie. I don't remember offhand how many versions I have but I think it's about 25.

I don't remember for sure, but I think you can either read it online or download it from the site.

[Michael The Disciple]

The LXX in some verses weakens the Oneness message.

Note Isaiah 9:6-7 from it:

6 For a child is born to us, and a son is given to us, whose government is upon his shoulder: and his name is called the Messenger of great counsel: for I will bring peace upon the princes, and health to him. 7 His government shall be great, and of his peace there is no end: it shall be upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to establish it, and to support it with judgment and with righteousness, from henceforth and forever. The seal of the Lord of hosts shall perform this.

Compared to the Masorite Text:

6: For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counseller, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
7: Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.


Which one is inspired?

Which one is inspired?

The inspired version was written by the hand of Isaiah or by a scribe or an assistant under his direction. That document has been gone for many centuries.

The NT writers used the LXX.
Some folks believe that the Masoretes developed the text which later carried their name as a reaction against Christianity and in doing so, may not have been completely honest in the way they presented it. They may have developed a text which they thought contradicted the "Christian" version.
Answers to a question like that require more knowledge than I have.

One hint might be Romans 3:1-2 in which Paul says that the Jews received, maintained, and disseminated God's Word. Of course we also need to remember that Jewish scholars translated the Hebrew into Greek so, in a way we can say that both the Masoretic and LXX are products of the Jews.
