Vadim,
You are saying:
"The Masoretes mistook very distinct vocal schwa in word-beginning
followed by another schwa for short e sound. Recognizing that
unaccented e should become hirek, they introduced hirek in word-
initial double schwa combinations. That Masoretic development runs
contrary to the LXX evidence."
Could you expand, please, on this LXX evidence.
