The KJV and Hebrew columns cover Jeremiah 41, which narrates Ishmael son of Nethaniah's assassination of Gedaliah, the Babylonian-appointed governor of Judah's remnant, followed by a massacre of pilgrims from Shechem, Shiloh, and Samaria who were tricked into entering Mizpah under false pretenses. The Greek Septuagint column presents a different passage \u2014 material corresponding to Jeremiah 34 in the Hebrew ordering \u2014 concerning King Zedekiah's covenant to free Hebrew slaves and God's judgment when the people revoke that freedom. The text's most distinctive feature is its simultaneous display of divergent versional traditions, including the well-known ordering difference between the MT and LXX Jeremiah, making the textual divergence itself the scholarly focus rather than any single reading. The Strong's numbers embedded throughout the KJV column link each word to its Hebrew lexical entry, indicating this is formatted for close lexical study rather than devotional reading.","tags":["Book of Acts","Greek New Testament","Polyglot Bible"],"text":null,"title":"Polyglot Bible: Jeremiah: Jeremiah 41","tradition":"Hypertext Bible","translated_text":null,"word_count":2051}
