Alexandrinus - Grabe editions - facsimiles available to Benedict? Today? - Breitinger

[Steven Avery]

=========================

This grew out of the central one:

Zosimas studies
https://www.purebibleforum.com/index.php/threads/a.568

ADDED - A good Greek facsimile of Alexandrinus will make its use much easier than the Alex pics.
What did Rohan use yesterday, yes, the OT pics were available, with difficulty?

==================================

We have seen e.g. that Song of Songs has features that could easily be Alexandrinus --> Sinaiticus.

However, they are not in Zosima ..

e.g. the speaking titles and columns and number of letters are all very close.

==================================

We know there are later editions that are facsimiles, especially

This next gives some info on Grabe and Lee and Wigan and Breitinger editions.

...For Grabe’s edition see T. Darlow, Catalogue II, 2, no. 4733. J. E. Grabe edited vols. 1 (1707) and 4 (1709), F. Lee vol. 2 (1719) and W. Wigan vol. 3 (1720). In actual fact they did not use the original edition but the reprint published by Johann Jakob Breitinger (1701 -1767) at Zurich in 1730-1732, see below note 499. For the edition see T. Darlow, Catalogue II, 2, no. 4740.

More info needed.
The following are other LXX editions, but not really Alexandrinus based.

Breitinger edition - 4th volume, probably NT, is online, this can at least tell us if the formatting is following Alexandrinus

Hē Palaia Diathēke Kata Tus Ebdomēkonta: 4 (1730)
https://books.google.com/books?id=L6pEAAAAcAAJ&pg=PA7
https://books.google.com/books?id=L6pEAAAAcAAJ&pg=RA1-PA5

So far, this is the only online one from the 1707-1730 Grabe editions.
