This dissertation deals with the Septuagint's translation of the verbs of Chronicles. It slices through two diachronic developments: the development of the Hebrew verbal system and the trend towards a more literal translation of the Bible. Firstly, the way the translator of Chronicles handled the Hebrew verbs is part of the continuum in the development of the Hebrew verbal system from Classical Biblical Hebrew to Rabbinic or Mishnaic Hebrew. By looking at the way Hebrew verbal forms were translated, we can get some insight into the Hebrew of the time of the translator, which was the primary influence on his understanding of the Hebrew verbs. In addition to this, he recognized, through the reading tradition and through his study, archaic meanings to certain verb forms. He also realized that the context dictated, or strongly suggested, the use of certain Greek verb forms that did not correspond to a particular Hebrew form. We can see by his translation of some of these archaic forms that he updated the translation to conform it more closely to contemporary Hebrew.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a This dissertation deals with the Septuagint's translation of the verbs of Chronicles. It slices through two diachronic developments: the development of the Hebrew verbal system and the trend towards a more literal translation of the Bible. Firstly, the way the translator of Chronicles handled the Hebrew verbs is part of the continuum in the development of the Hebrew verbal system from Classical Biblical Hebrew to Rabbinic or Mishnaic Hebrew. By looking at the way Hebrew verbal forms were translated, we can get some insight into the Hebrew of the time of the translator, which was the primary influence on his understanding of the Hebrew verbs. In addition to this, he recognized, through the reading tradition and through his study, archaic meanings to certain verb forms. He also realized that the context dictated, or strongly suggested, the use of certain Greek verb forms that did not correspond to a particular Hebrew form. We can see by his translation of some of these archaic forms that he updated the translation to conform it more closely to contemporary Hebrew.
520 $a Secondly, the translation of the book of Chronicles is part of a trend in the process of the translation of the Bible from the freer (but still literal) translation of Pentateuch and Samuel/Kings to the slavishly literal translation of Aquila. This was motivated by the desire to bring the reader to the source text and an increasing reverence for the holy writ. In the translation of the verbs, one gets the impression that the translator was striving to be more literal than his predecessors (avoiding the use of the circumstantial participles and historic presents for consecutive forms that were employed in the translation Pentateuch and Samuel/Kings) without going to the extreme of using the same common equivalent for each distinct Hebrew verb form, which would have resulted in a nonsensical translation. He was sensitive enough to use non-standard Greek forms where the context dictated or suggested them and minor anomalies (minuses, plusses, and changes in word order, genre, and structure) reflect minor improvements or variations within a basically literal approach.
