Abram K-J Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 I believe Russell Beatty and some others are doing Minor Prophets LXX in 2017--I'll see if I can point him to this thread! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ιακοβ Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 That sounds fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Λύχνις Δαν Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 I know this isn't LXX, but when this came up earlier this year after we kicked around a few ideas I posted a reading plan for Luke, Hebrews and 2Corinthians to the exchange : http://www.accordancefiles1.com/exchange/downloads/LukeHeb2CorNA.zip. It's aimed at providing increasingly difficult material as the year progresses. It's what I plan to use from Jan 1 onwards. thx D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ιακοβ Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Wait, so 2Corinthians is deemed more difficult than Hebrews? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Λύχνις Δαν Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Well I'm told more classical which will probably equate to more alien, thus to more difficult. Here's the thread where it was discussed https://www.accordancebible.com/forums/topic/19112-is-this-still-going/. Thankfully the GNT syntax charts are now complete.

Russell Beatty Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 We're doing the Minor Prophets and Daniel in 2017. I have a reading plan. I'm interested in the whole LXX in a year. Has anyone developed a reading plan for that? Here's the FB page for the reading group. I'll change the name before year's end. https://www.facebook.com/groups/724259411041009/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abram K-J Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 LXX in a year is ambitious! Even reading the OT in English (or whatever one's native language is) in a year is a time commitment. Kudos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russell Beatty Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Yeah, it's probably way too much. It would probably take 3 chapters per day to read it in a year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Λύχνις Δαν Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Nonetheless I think it's a great goal to raise one's Greek to such a level as to make it possible. Thx D 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abram K-J Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Daniel, I agree about 2 Corinthians, by the way--I think the Greek there is some of the hardest (if not the hardest) in the GNT. It is all the more difficult due to the content of the letter itself--which is a challenge to work through even in my native tongue! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Λύχνις Δαν Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 So the last couple of months of the reading plan are going to be interesting then - eeek! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
