/lit/ - Literature

i don't know anything about the bible (scholarly wise), im trying actually to do my research so that i can begin reading and studying the most complete version. why isn't pic rel being mentioned at all? it seems like it's the most literal translation and based on the oldest available sources (LXX). its only flaw is that it doesn't contain apocrypha, but i was thinking of reading this and then the apocrypha by themselves in a latter moment. thoughts?

also, speaking of apocrypha, which ones are actually worth reading and are old? i mean, whch ones are not some pseudo orthodox whatever bullshit dating back to the middle ages.

please help me so that i can begin my study asap.
