The Septuagint with Apocrypha: Greek and English (aka The Septuagint Version of the Old Testament and Apocrypha (1851) is a book by Lancelot Brenton.
Abstract
"This edition of the Septuagint, including Apocrypha, gives the complete Greek text along with a parallel English translation. The name derives from the tradition that it was made by seventy Jewish scholars at Alexandria, Egypt during the reign of Ptolemy Philadelphus. The Apocryphal writings, although rejected by Protestants as non-canonical, provide important background material for a better understanding of the New Testament."--Publisher description.
This expanded edition of The Septuagint Version of the Old Testament (1844 Brenton), book was the first to include the OT Apocrypha and to present the Greek and English texts in parallel columns. Often reprinted, it became the standard English edition of the Septuagint until the publication of A New English Translation of the Septuagint (2007 Pietersma, Wright), edited volume.
