Information About

Aquila Of Sinope




as עקילם. Aquila's version is said to have been used in place of the Septuagint in the synagogues. The Christians generally disliked it, alleging without due grounds that it rendered the Messianic passages incorrectly, but Jerome and Origen speak in its praise. Origen incorporated it in his '' Hexapla ''.

It was thought that this was the only copy extant, but in 90–103 by C. Taylor in 1899 . See F. C. Burkitt's article in the ''Jewish Encyclopaedia''.
