Start Your Journey Into the Bible Jesus Actually Read One Question Changes Everything: What if the Old Testament you've been reading your entire life isn't the same one Jesus knew? What if the apostles quoted from a different source than what's in your English Bible? What if the tradition that shaped Christianity from the beginning was somehow lost along the way for many believers? That tradition is the Septuagint.
