The sacred Tetragrammaton in paleo-Hebrew script
in the newly discovered parchments
of the Old Greek (Septuagint)
in the Dead Sea Scrolls /

Το ιερό Τετραγράμματο σε παλαιοεβραϊκή γραφή
στα νεοανακαλυφθέντα σπαράγματα
της Παλαιάς Ελληνικής (Εβδομήκοντα)
στους Ρόλους της Νεκράς Θάλασσας

 

 


The sacred Tetragrammaton in paleo-Hebrew script. /
Το ιερό Τετραγράμματο σε παλαιοεβραϊκή γραφή.


See: / Βλέπε:

"Jesus, the New Testament,
and the sacred Tetragrammaton
," pp. 56, 57, 67-69.




The new fragments contain verses from Zechariah 8:16-17,
including part of the name of God written in ancient Hebrew,
and verses from Nahum 1:5-6, both from the biblical Book of the Twelve Minor Prophets.


 

 

 
 Experts managed to reconstruct 11 lines of text from Zechariah, including the verses,
These are the things you are to do: Speak the truth to one another, render true
and perfect justice in your gates. And do not contrive evil against one another,
and do not love perjury, because all those are things that I hate — declares the Lord.
 
 
 
Reconstruction approach of the main part of the text in Greek : /
Απόπειρα αποκατάστασης του βασικού τμήματος στα Ελληνικά :
Zac / Ζαχ 8:16,17:

ταῖς πύλαις||   ὑμῶν καὶ ἕκαστος
[ανήρ] τὴν κα||  κίαν τοῦ πλη
σίον αὐτοῦ||  μὴ λογίζεσθε
ἐν ταῖς κα||  ρδίαις ὑμῶν καὶ ὅρκον
 
 
Probably part of the mss. 8ḤevXII (Rahlfs 943). /
Πιθανότατα τμήμα του χφ. 8ḤevXII (Rahlfs 943).
