Jeremiah: Translation

by Georg A. Walser

Publisher:

Brill

, 2012

Overview

This commentary on Greek Jeremiah is based on what is most certainly the best complete manuscript, namely Codex Vaticanus. It presents the uncorrected original text and utilizes the paragraphs of the manuscript itself. The translation into English on facing pages is deliberately literal so as to give the modern reader a hint of the impression the Greek translation could have made on an ancient reader. The purpose of the commentary is to provide a discussion of the Greek text of Jeremiah in its own right. Hence references to the Vorlage are only made to explain peculiarities in the Greek text.
