Personally, I am NOT A FAN of creme-colored pages or off-white pages. I know it is easier on the eyes for reading over longer periods of time, but I like white/pure white pages personally. I have an issue with the ESV Journaling Bibles for this same reason.
Note on each page there are roughly 125,000 footnotes (total) containing contextual glosses throughout the two volumes, representing words that occur under 100x in the LXX or under 30x in the Greek NT. to help readers quick reference meanings.
I just bought today. Thank you for the reviews.
You are welcome. Hope you are as excited to open yours! Don't miss the reading program, etc. at lxxre.wordpress.com/blog/
@@marksequeira2757 I was and I am excited. Thank you very much. Regards :)
Wow the inside of it, thanks for the details on LXX

Any other reader's edition to show us?
Check out the Facebook group, "The Septuagint (LXX) and the Apostolic Polyglot Bible".
so how would this be helpful if one can not read Greek?
It would not be helpful. For this, try the Lexham English Septuagint (if an English reader) or the NETS.
So it doesn’t have a English translation in it?
No, for that you need the NETS translation.
Mark Sequeira ok thank you
Or get the Brenton Translation which has both the Greek and English
or the LES (Lexham English Septuagint)
@@marksequeira2757 would you prefer the NETS over the LES?
That's in Greek? How is this beneficial to any one that speaks English.
Today with all the resources that exist, anyone with some time and will can learn Greek and Hebrew, I am doing it and it is one of the best decisions I have made in my life.
