          Variants Project Information


The purpose of this page is to provide information about the LXX/OG Variants Project.

The aim of the project is to digitize the best available critical apparatus of each of the books of the Septuagint and other Old Greek translations of the Hebrew Bible/Old Testament (HB/OT).

This site is a working location, for the uploading, via ftp, of the digitizing work in progress.

We are working in sections, toward completion. The nearest to completion are the following sections or books:

The Twelve Minor Prophets
Psalms
Genesis
Deuteronomy

Background

The Variants Project is the work of CATSS, or Computer Assisted Tools for Septuagint/Scriptural Study, housed at the University of Pennsylvania, under the direction of Robert A. Kraft, Professor Emeritus of Religious Studies, and Past President of the Society of Biblical Literature. The work of many contributors is represented in the digital files of each HB/OT section or book, and each of them has required numerous stages of preparation.
