Theodotion

Translator of the Bible from Hebrew to Greek

Theodotion is traditionally identified as one of three major Jewish translators of the Hebrew Bible into Greek during the second century CE, alongside Aquila and Symmachus. According to Irenaeus, Theodotion was a proselyte from Asia Minor, likely Ephesus.

Theodotion is read about 37 times a day, in 20 languages.

A typical day, 30 days to 17 August 2026

The middle day of the days counted, so one week of news cannot move it. The line under it is the last 60 days, one point a day.

About this person

Epiphanius dates his activity to the reign of Emperor Commodus, though this chronology may derive from the column order in Origen's Hexapla rather than historical evidence.
