I'm not sure. That's another interesting thing. Perhaps the translator
didn't alter this one as he did the other two, assuming (as I would)
that the HB is the original text.

Thanks for pointing this out.

Recently, some of the discussions were about the Septuagint compared to the
Masoretic text and the 70 souls from Jacob. Genesis 46:27 , Exodus 1:5 , and
Deuteronomy 10:22 all say 70 in the Masoretic text, but the Septuagint says
75 in the first two, but 70 in Deuteronomy 10:22. Why is it different in
this quote?

Sincerely,

Kenneth Greifer
