O'Hare (theology and religious studies, Wheeling Jesuit U.) identifies and illustrates the goals of the translation of the passage into Greek, and distinguishes to the extent possible the translator's vorlage--the text he began with--from his own contributions. The two goals, he says, are deeply intertwined. He discusses investigating the translator's manner of translating, the vorlage of LXX Ezekiel 40-48, near and far contexts of the rendering, and the translator and his target readership.
