Greetings Friends:

From earlier posts I have learned that the Greek OT predates the earliest
copy of the MT by a number of centuries. I'm interested to know how OT
textual critics weigh these two sources. That is, for example, is the
Greek OT generally considered more authoritative because it is closer in
time to the autographs than the later MT?

Many thanks from a novice (obviously).
