Greek Minor Prophets (Dead Sea Scrolls) - Litteral's Christian Library

This is a project where I am comparing the Dead Sea Scroll manuscript 8HevXIIgr with the traditional readings of the Greek Septuagint, as well as the readings that exists of Aquila, Symmachus, Theodotion, and the New Testament citations. I am providing all the readings with a linked lexicon for easy comparison, just click on each word and it will provide you with the definition. The 8HevXIIgr readings are provided with the actual words and letters that are existant in the manuscript, and the variant readings of 8HevXIIgr are in red to show where it differs from the Rahlfs version of the LXX. Example from Micah 5:2...

Septuagint 8HevXIIgr Matthew 2:6
5:2 καὶ σύ Βηθλεεμ οἶκος τοῦ Εφραθα ὀλιγοστὸς εἶ τοῦ εἶναι ἐν χιλιάσιν Ιουδα ἐκ σοῦ μοι ἐξελεύσεται τοῦ εἶναι εἰς ἄρχοντα ἐν τῷ Ισραηλ καὶ αἱ ἔξοδοι αὐτοῦ ἀπ ἀρχῆς ἐξ ἡμερῶν αἰῶνος 5:2 καὶ σύ
οἶκος ___Εφραθα
ὀλιγοστὸς τοῦ εἶναι ἐν χιλιάσιν Ιουδα ἐκ σοῦ μοι ἐξελεύσεται τοῦ εἶναι ἄρχοντα ἐν τῷ Ισραηλ
ἔξοδοι αὐτοῦ ἀπ ἀρχῆς αφ ἡμερῶν
και συ βηθλεεμ γη ιουδα ουδαμως ελαχιστη ει εν τοις ηγεμοσιν ιουδα εκ σου γαρ εξελευσεται ηγουμενος οστις ποιμανει τον λαον μου τον ισραηλ

John, Interesting project! Just a question: You are working with Rahlfs. Have you referenced Ziegler's Duodecim Prophetae?
Do you find this valuable?
