vparunak Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 I often use the MT-LXX aligned text to gather statistics on the relative frequency of translation of a given Hebrew word by different Greek words. But the process is complicated by the fact that the LXX (and thus the Greek counts) include books not included in the MT (the basis of Hebrew counts). Is there a straightforward way to restrict the LXX search to the books that occur in MT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vparunak Posted April 20, 2022 Author Share Posted April 20, 2022 I'm familiar with the mechanisms in that video. The problem is defining a range that 1. includes all and only the MT books and 2. respects the ordering in the Rahlfs LXX text (ranges that I've tried so far complain that I'm violating the verse order of the text). I suppose I could just list the MT book names individually, but I was hoping there would be a shortcut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
