One vital point is that what is called the LXX is often diffuse and diverse and rather
dubious manuscripts from 350 AD and later. A text that could have been subject to
lots of corrupt alexandrian "Christian" scribe "smoothing" to match the NT, among other
problems. And yet these texts are discussed as if it they were used, even in Israel,
300 years earlier ! This I believe is a primary presumption blunder of much Scriptural
scholarship. Floyd Nolan Jones discusses it some in a book on the web.
