Hello all,

In Genesis 37:3 in the King James we get the notion that Joseph was given a
"coat of mnay colors".  But other translations give all sorts of other
readings.  We have a coat with long sleeves, there is a coat that reaches
to the soles of the feet,, etc.

How is this verse rendered in the LXX and what is the strictest sense of
the phrasing.
