Two Lutheran (LCMS) men bring a theological lens to the world, and relate the state of the world back to theology. Topics are timely, challenging, and fearless. We’ll probably make you nervous, sometimes make you angry, but never leave you bored. We are the stones who cry out.© Stone Choir — 2022–2025, Some Rights Reserved Cristianismo Espiritualidad Ministerio y Evangelismo

  • The Septuagint — Timelines and Other Alterations

    The Septuagint — Timelines and Other Alterations
    Aug 12 2025
    The rabbis made a number of different kinds of edits to their version of what some call ‘Scripture’ (i.e., the Rabbinic or Masoretic Text). In some places, they fiddled with numbers, in some they changed names, and in still others they deleted entire sections of the text. In this final episode of the Old Testament portion of the Septuagint series, we examine the changes the rabbis made to the timelines (particularly the genealogies), the Book of Job, the Book of Esther, and a few other miscellaneous matters. The next two episodes will round out the LXX series with an examination of how the New Testament uses the Old (to the surprise of none, Jesus and the Apostles used the Septuagint), and then the final episode in the series will give a roadmap for where we, as the Church, go from here.

  • The Septuagint — Wisdom Literature

    The Septuagint — Wisdom Literature
    Jul 2 2025
    As between the Septuagint (LXX) and the rabbinic text (MT), there are significant differences in the books that comprise the wisdom literature (i.e., Job, Psalms, Proverbs, Ecclesiastes, Song of Solomon). These differences range from changes in diction through distortions and corruptions to outright additions and deletions (one should think of the warning in the Book of Revelation). Out treatment here is not (and is not intended to be) comprehensive — there are centuries of work ahead of the Church; rather, we intend to drive home the point that the only Christian reaction is to abandon and anathematize the ‘Hebrew’ passed to us by the rabbis in favor of the Greek passed to us by Christ, the Apostles, and our faithful forebears — and, most importantly of all, preserved by God, as He promised. Christ, the Apostles, and the early Church all unanimously held that the Septuagint is, indeed, the very Word of God. In this fifth episode in the (now) nine-episode LXX series, we examine differences between the LXX and the MT in the wisdom books (largely focusing on Proverbs). This is the second of three episodes dealing specifically with the Old Testament differences between the LXX and the MT. This is, of course, not our closing argument, for we will be making that in the two episodes that deal with the New Testament and how it treats the Old Testament.

  • The Septuagint — Christology

    The Septuagint — Christology
    Jun 11 2025
    As between the Septuagint (LXX) and the rabbinic text (MT), there are significant differences in many verses that deal with Christology. The MT is not always ‘less Christological’, for that would have been a poor-quality trap, but the proper hermeneutic for determining the text of Scripture is not ‘more Christology’; rather, the right hermeneutic is quite simply: What is Scripture and what does it say? Christ, the Apostles, and the early Church all unanimously held that the Septuagint is, indeed, the very Word of God. In this fourth episode in the (now) nine-episode LXX series, we examine Christological differences between the LXX and the MT. This is the first of three episodes dealing specifically with the Old Testament differences between the LXX and the MT. This is, of course, not our closing argument, for we will be making that in the two episodes that deal with the New Testament and how it treats the Old Testament.
