This chapter explores the interplay between the Septuagint, the Gospels, and Paul's writings, highlighting Jesus' scriptural citations and the absence of apocryphal references. It concludes that while the Septuagint served Paul’s mission, it does not assert divine authority over its deuterocanonical texts, allowing modern Christians to select translations based on cultural context.
