The KJV column contains Jeremiah 50, a prophetic oracle announcing Babylon's coming destruction \u2014 God summons nations from the north to devastate the empire, its gods Bel and Merodach are mocked as broken idols, and Israel is promised restoration and forgiveness once Babylon falls. The Septuagint column presents materially different content covering what corresponds to Jeremiah 43 in English Bibles \u2014 the account of the disobedient remnant fleeing to Egypt against God's command, taking Jeremiah and Baruch with them to Tahpanhes, where a symbolic stone-hiding prophecy foretells Nebuchadnezzar's conquest of Egypt. The juxtaposition highlights a distinctive feature of Jeremiah scholarship: the Septuagint and Masoretic (Hebrew) traditions of this book differ substantially in chapter order and length, making this a useful resource for textual comparison. It would interest scholars, translators, or students studying the transmission history of the Hebrew Bible and the divergence between the two major manuscript traditions of Jeremiah.","tags":["Book of Acts","Greek New Testament","Polyglot Bible"],"text":null,"title":"Polyglot Bible: Jeremiah: Jeremiah 50","tradition":"Hypertext Bible","translated_text":null,"word_count":3512}
