The KJV/Hebrew columns cover Jeremiah 36, the dramatic episode in which God commands Jeremiah to dictate his prophecies onto a scroll, his scribe Baruch reads it publicly in the Temple, and King Jehoiakim defiantly burns the scroll column by column in his winter palace \u2014 only for God to command Jeremiah to produce a replacement scroll with additional words. The Greek Septuagint column diverges significantly, presenting instead material corresponding to Jeremiah 29 (the letter to the Babylonian exiles counseling them to settle, build, plant, and pray for Babylon's welfare, with promises of restoration after seventy years). This juxtaposition is notable because it illustrates one of the most studied textual phenomena in biblical scholarship: the Septuagint and Masoretic versions of Jeremiah differ substantially in ordering and length, with the LXX being roughly one-eighth shorter and arranging oracles differently. The resource will appeal primarily to scholars, seminarians, or serious students engaged in textual criticism, comparative translation study, or close biblical exegesis rather than general readers.","tags":["Book of Acts","Greek New Testament","Polyglot Bible"],"text":null,"title":"Polyglot Bible: Jeremiah: Jeremiah 36","tradition":"Hypertext Bible","translated_text":null,"word_count":3073}
