Hebrew Torah to Greek Pentateuch

The Diaspora resulted in most ethnic Israelites not comprehending, speaking, or reading the language of their ancestors (paleo-hebrew), and the spread of communities results in having redacted bibles which meet the language of the communities, with Aramaic being less common and Greek being most common, with other languages such as Arabic, or non-semitic languages gaining a foothold in the collection of scrolls and transmission of biblical knowledge and events and tombs or monuments. James the 1st bishop of Jerusalem apparently quoted from the LXX and not the SP or Ezra's Aramaic version https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7A7RwuUfUaE https://youtu.be/I3f82WxIx5Q?si=LVCDEEnUmL2qqpYF https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CSYp2_v6iPE Every year the church commemorates Symeon the God-Receiver on February 3, see his influence on the LXX https://www.oca.org/saints/lives/2001/02/03/100409-holy-righteous-simeon-the-god-receiver
