'Taint no such thing as "the Septuagint". What you are actually referring to is Origen's Hexapla (Catholic).

No.The Septuagint translation occurred on Pharos Island beneath the Great Lighthouse of Alexandria.
It's actually "E-eh-soos". Most Jews in Jesus day spoke Greek just fine (even the surviving writings of Josephus are in Greek). It was the lingua franca of the then Roman Empire, as English is today.The correct pronunciation of Ἰησοῦς is like "e-sues"
Sounds a little like commentary.No, it would mean their parents intermarried with Greeks or Romans.
The Jews intermarried commonly with Gentiles as we see in Samaria etc.
This segregation you think of would have been national suicide in the Roman economy.
They all spoke Greek and even used Roman currency.

Oh my Gosh! The Catholics did not exist during the time of the Septuagint.No.

What about those topics? Are you saying that there is a paradox or contradiction? If you do, I can address it.Could we be any more off-topic? What about clean and unclean meats or men wearing long hair?
Sure, I mean it. Do you get to see them all the time, are they all near you?Indeed! Thanks for the kind words!
That's very clever. What about a Seventh-Day Adventist who doesn't believe in the trinity?What about those topics? Are you saying that there is a paradox or contradiction? If you do, I can address it.
The paradox right now, is someone actually thinks the mythology of the creation of the septuagint is real, when it so ain't as shown by the evidence.
I believe in the Trio, which is scriptural and from the Spirit of Prophecy. Actual Seventh-day Adventists all wrote against the notion of the "Trinity" (citations upon request).That's very clever. What about a Seventh-Day Adventist who doesn't believe in the trinity?
All within 100 miles in Oklahoma and Kansas except for one lonely granddaughter [about 25] ostracized by her immediate family living in Florida. My wife and I stay in touch with her but she misses the contact and love of siblings and parents. We are unable to fix the problem. Keep her and them in prayer!Sure, I mean it.

Sorry to hear that. Florida is a ways off from Oklahoma and Kansas, and different at that.All within 100 miles in Oklahoma and Kansas except for one lonely granddaughter [about 25] ostracized by her immediate family living in Florida.

A little dodgy, eh? You've made yourself very unclear. A copy-and-paste from Wikipedia? Ignatius and Tertullian? Who cares about them? I thought Adventists were "people of the Book." I've never heard any of this stuff in Sabbath School (maybe we skipped over it).I believe in the Trio, which is scriptural and from the Spirit of Prophecy. Actual Seventh-day Adventists all wrote against the notion of the "Trinity" (citations upon request).
However, I can accept a basic definition of "trinity" if it simply means Three Persons/Beings working together in common Purpose.
“... The word "trinity" is derived from Latin trinitas, meaning "the number three, a triad, tri". This abstract noun is formed from the adjective trinus (three each, threefold, triple),[21] as the word unitas is the abstract noun formed from unus (one).
The corresponding word in Greek is tριάς, meaning "a set of three" or "the number three".[22] The first recorded use of this Greek word in Christian theology was by Theophilus of Antioch in about the year of 170. He wrote:[23][24]
In like manner also the three days which were before the luminaries, are types of the Trinity [Τριάδος], of God, and His Word, and His wisdom. And the fourth is the type of man, who needs light, that so there may be God, the Word, wisdom, man.[25]
Tertullian, a Latin theologian who wrote in the early 3rd century, is credited as being the first to use the Latin words "Trinity",[26] "person" and "substance"[27] to explain that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are "tres personae, una substantia".[28] While "personae" is often translated as "persons," the Latin word personae is better understood as referring to roles as opposed to individual centers of consciousness. ...” - Trinity - Wikipedia
Already we can see 2 varying definitions, [1] between Ignatius of Antioch [which is where they were first called “Christians” [Acts 11:26 KJB]], and [2] the later Latin Tertullian, which included “una substantia” (false doctrine).
Yet, throughout history there are further definitions of the word.
Not being dodgy. I am being specific, since I know the actual definition of "Trinity" that is used in most of the churches, and it is error (again, if you want citations, I can cite them for you).A little dodgy, eh?

So sad. I have one sibling, an estranged sister. She's consumed with hate. She can't seem to forgive anyone for anything. It's broken my dad's heart so badly, he gets physically ill over it. She used to idolize me. She's hated me for 11 years now. I can't say I'm entirely blameless. I've prayed about it and reconciled a few times, but every time the hate gets worse. I love her so much, but trying to maintain a meaningful relationship with her is like walking through a minefield on eggshells.All within 100 miles in Oklahoma and Kansas except for one lonely granddaughter [about 25] ostracized by her immediate family living in Florida.
