1 | LXX of Luke 4.18 vs Isaiah 61.1 | Luke 4:18 | RickCarpenter | 219555 | ||
The LXX quoted in Luke 4.18 includes "recovery of sight to the blind." This phrase is not included in NASB Isaiah 61.1. Where did this LXX, and other LXX sources in NASB, come from? I have heard that Qumran Isaiah texts include the blind phrase but I haven't found any to compare. | ||||||
2 | LXX of Luke 4.18 vs Isaiah 61.1 | Luke 4:18 | Morant61 | 219556 | ||
Greetings Rick! According to Keil and Delitzsch's commentary, the word used to describe the opening of the prison is often used to describe the opening of eyes. They suggest that the LXX has expanded the verse to include both concepts. Further, there are other passages in Isaiah that Jesus could have been conflating with Is. 61:1, such as Is. 42:7.
