In this video I show and review a few Bibles that I recommend for Orthodox Christian use, and give a brief explanation as to how the Vulgate was used by God to preserve some texts of scripture.

I once had a copy of Lexham's LXX translation. My copy's poor print quality was too much for me to handle. I donated it to a friend.
@ArchangelsBookClub Жыл бұрын
Well; I didn't think the print quality was too bad. Bible's are notoriously struggling with that because of the pure volume of text trying to be squeezed into a single volume.

Thank you for these recommendations. Could you please made a video or reply here for any specific recommendations on a book for lives of the Saints. I have seen elsewhere recommended - lives of the saints by St. Nicolai Velimirovich - but I cannot find a English version. Someone else recommended 'Great collection of lives of saints' by St. Demetrius of Rostov - however it is divided into volumes corresponding to each month of the year and there does not seem to be a place which has all 12 volumes.

Just a little grammatical note: “thee and thou” are not exalted, but are familiar. It is how you address someone close to you.

Yup. "You and your" used to be the formal pronouns, but as the English speaking world became more formal during the 19-20th centuries, "thee" and "thou" were slowly fazed out.

What are your thoughts on the Septuagint with Apocrypha by Sir Lancelot C.L Brenton in comparison to the Lexham English Septuagint?
@ArchangelsBookClub Жыл бұрын
Get the Lexham. Brenton is good but it’s older; also it reorganizes the prophets to match the Hebrew Text. Like Jeremiah in the Septuagint is in a different order than the Masoretic text; and Brenton rearranges the LXX. We don’t know why the order is different between the texts; but it’s better to just leave the LXX the way it is. The order of the books is not inspired; you can see similar differences in the Psalter as well. All of the content is there, but it’s just in a different order. All new translations of the Septuagint are going to use the Brenton in the translation process anyways.

I've heard the pashmita bible is Orthodox. Is that true and your opinion on that one?
@ArchangelsBookClub Жыл бұрын
I believe you're referring to the Peshita. The Peshita is a Syriac translation of the Bible. It is the official text of many of the so-called Oriental Orthodox Churches, as well as their Roman Catholic Equivalents. It is surely an important part of Christian history, and I do not think that it is a problem for a person to read it or a translation of it. However; I am not aware of an Orthodox Christian Church that uses it, as the Antiochian Orthodox Church uses an Arabic Bible known as the Roman Orthodox Version. In the Middle East, Christians, all Christians, are called Roman.

I lean more to Protestantism with no denomination though. Before everyone says anything negative...im not here for a argument or a fight I am honestly seeking to understamd Orthodox Church. I understand that many of you "doth protest" lol to Luther and that he removed books. Ok , ok. Im not fighting guys but i hear ya. So to me at the moment my bible contains 66books as many of you guys might know. What bibles have the books you say protestants lack? and if you could kindly tell me as well which books to compare to my Bible. Thanks brothers in Christ. ( i know you guys might not see me in that way because of your beliefs i understand) but i do it out of respect because of your love and devotion to our Lord Jesus Christ.

Hey brother, firstly, consider joining the discord. We’re more than happy to have conversations with you, over text or voice chat about all of your questions. I’m willing to bet this won’t be your only question. ;) discord.gg/AaDahsGU Now; I have a King James Bible with Apocrypha which is good, the World English Bible with Apocrypha is good, the Annotated Revised Standard Version includes these books, there is the English Standard Version with Apocrypha, and there is the Orthodox Study Bible. Right, so Protestants have access to these books in most translations that they use. Even the New Living Translation and the Message have Catholic Editions which include these books. These books are I-IV Maccabees, Tobit, Judith, long Esther, long Daniel, Psalm 151, The Prayer of Manasseh, Wisdom of Solomon, Wisdom of Sirach, Baruch, the Epistle of Jeremiah, III Esdras, and IV Esdras. That’s the full list of books that the Protestants don’t typically refer to or know.

@@danperez3970 For whatever reason, there are minor differences in canon across traditions. Slavs have II Esdras but not fourth Maccabees, Greeks have IV Books of Maccabees but not II Esdras, Roman Catholics only have two books of Maccabees. We also combine books sometimes, which is not uncommon among the Jews, as the “lesser prophets” are gathered together in one book called “the book of the twelve.” If you want access to all of the material used throughout the world, then the RSV Annotated edition is good. Otherwise, the Orthodox Study Bible is good, though it lacks IV Maccabees and II Esdras. Really though, we way we look at canon isn’t the same. There are three categories of books, not just two. In the West it’s all about “books in the Bible” and “books not in the Bible.” To the Orthodox, it’s “Books read in the Church, Books read in the home, and Books not to be read.” If a bishop has a book in the second category read in the Church, it doesn’t really matter, because we *all* recognize it as good and bearing witness to the Faith.

@@ArchangelsBookClub The OSB isn’t a true LXX translation. Look up verses that differ in the LXX and MT in the OSB for yourself to see. It’s the NKJV OT updated in some places to conform a bit more to the major LXX readings.
