Shalom B-Greek,
Could you help us with the LXX version of
Zechariah 6:12-13
And speak unto him, saying,
Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying,
Behold the man whose name is The BRANCH;
and he shall grow up out of his place,
and he shall build the temple of the LORD:
Even he shall build the temple of the LORD;
and he shall bear the glory,
and shall sit and rule upon his throne;
**and he shall be a priest upon his throne: **
and the counsel of peace shall be between them both.
One friend gave me this...
estau o iereus ek dexion
he will be priest at his right hand - Rahlf's
verb estau-fut mid ind 3rd per sing, from eimi.......be, exist; happen,
take place, live....
(note: It would appear that the "he" has to be "the man whose name is branch".)
Would you agree that the LXX leans toward the KJB translation,
"and he shall be a priest upon his throne" (or, "at his right hand")
rather than a translation like...
"and there shall be a priest upon his throne"
Much appreciated :-)
