The Septuagint Bible is the translation from Hebrew to Greek. The Greek Israeli Bible, commonly called the Bible of the LXX (70), or Septuagint Bible (a Latin word meaning seventy) because seventy-two rabbis (six from each of the twelve tribes) worked on it and, according to history, would have completed the translation in seventy-two days. It represents the oldest and most important among the collections of sacred Israelite religious texts, older than the Palestinian Jewish Tanakh, together with which it constitutes the source for the Old Testament of Christian Bibles.
