Forms:

α. 1500s–1600s 1800s– Septuaginta.

β. 1500s–1600s Septuaginte, 1500s– Septuagint.

Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin septuāgintā.

Etymology: < classical Latin septuāgintā seventy < a weakened form of septem seven (see septem- comb. form) + -gintā , suffix forming cardinal numerals from thirty to ninety, related to decem ten (see decem- comb. form). Compare LXX n. and discussion at that entry.In sense 1a after post-classical Latin septuaginta (4th or 5th cent. in Jerome) (short for septuaginta interpretes the seventy translators (4th cent. in Jerome)); compare Byzantine Greek οἱ ἐβδομήκοντα ἑρμηνευταί , literally 'the seventy interpreters'; compare also Greek οἱ Ο′ , i.e. ‘the Seventy‘. The Greek version of the Hebrew Scriptures (compare sense 3) was traditionally thought to have been produced by seventy-two Jews (six scholars from each of the Twelve Tribes of Israel) in seventy-two days, at the request of Ptolemy II Philadelphus of Egypt (308–246 b.c.). The number seventy-two was subsequently rounded to seventy. Doubts began to be cast on this legend in the 16th cent. and it is not generally accepted by modern scholars, but the translation of the Pentateuch does appear to have been made in the 3rd cent. b.c., probably in Alexandria.

a. The translators who produced the earliest and most influential Greek version of the Hebrew Bible (see sense 3). Now rare.
