Or is this like your request or rather demand that I post photographs of
Hebrew manuscripts, as if you can read Hebrew or any other Semitic
language. You can't, can you Giwer?


Giwer can barely read English. I have posted Akkadian and Hebrew
transliterations just for the hell of it, but it has been pretty
obvious Giwer does not have a clue of what they mean. When Giwer has
been trying to deal with the Bible, he's been trying to claim that it
says adonai in Ex. 20:7, and been basing what he thinks is an argument
on that. A quick check on my Biblia Hebraica revealed yhwh there.

Giwer does try to bluff a lot, but is usually pretty easily caught out
lying, just as when he tried to argue on his concept of the Black
Obelisk, blithely doing what he imagined was a transliteration - based
on Aramaic...


I do wish he would produce even one manuscript that supports his theory. As far as I can tell, there is absolutely no evidence to support his bizarre Septuaginta primacy. Do you know of any?


While I do not regard it as conclusive, the uniform style of the Septuagint is evidence.

Of translation.


Go on.
