Why The Greek Old Testament?
The Greek Old Testament
It is time to rediscover the Bible that IESOUS read and quoted from. Our Hebrew texts of the Old Testament (Masoretic Texts) are 90% identical to the Greek texts of the Old Testament (the 5 books of the Septuagint, plus 17 other books of the OT), but suffered some retroactive, punctual and decisive manipulations - e.g. by weakening the prophecies that IESOUS CHRISTOS was the MESSIAH, and by the falsification of 64% of the begetting ages in the genealogies which form the sole basis for the date of creation.
I have compared the Greek texts with the modern Hebrew texts of our standard Bibles, and can clearly demonstrate the overall superiority of the Greek Old Testament. Are we able to go back to the complete truth?

Late Witnesses of the Greek Old Testament
The Kiryat Gath Mosaic is a section of a mosaic floor from a probably Christian monastery. It dates to the Byzantine period [~ 5-6c. AD; Israel] and contains an allusion to the Greek Old Testament (Deu 28:6). The entire message is dedicated to CHRISTOS, probably meaning in coherence with the cross and the message directly below it: IESOUS CHRISTOS [...], in peace you came and in peace you left.
The Madaba Map [6c. AD; Jordan] is together with the Dead Sea Scrolls one of the most remarkable discoveries of this Christian age. Its creators inserted in the very limited space a number of direct quotes from the Greek Old Testament, highlighting very specific and important passages, and they reflected the true locations of biblical history.

Specific Manipulations (Found In The Study)
Biblical genealogies suffered many manipulations. While it was previously no problem to argue for a young creation with a significantly more generous timeline at hand, it has since become increasingly difficult to argue for such, and attacks of the Bible have intensified.
Where the Greek Old Testament provides a by all appearances balanced timeline, this same timeline has been shrunken into an unrecognizable cripple, where patriarchs would have possibly met each other up to 11 generations apart.
Abraham's 'Golden Age' became suddenly a very young age compared to his supposedly contemporary ancestors, which resulted in additional attacks of the Bible.
A perfectly timed flood with a duration of exactly one biblical year turned into today's vast confusion with numerous chronologies.
