285-247LXX SeptuagintThe scholars worked in Alexandria during the reign of Ptolemy II Philadelphus (285-247 B.C.), according to the Letter of Aristeas to his brother Philocrates. They assembled to translate the Hebrew Old Testament into the Greek language because Koine Greek began to supplant Hebrew as the language most commonly spoken by the Jewish people during the Hellenistic Period.
Aristeas determined that 72 scholars took part in the Hebrew-to-Greek Bible translation by calculating six elders for each of the 12 tribes of Israel. Adding to the legend and symbolism of the number is the idea that the translation was created in 72 days, according to The Biblical Archaeologist article, "Why Study the Septuagint?" written by Melvin K. H. Peters in 1986.

90-200AD"Christian" old testament canon
  • Early Texts: Many of the texts that would later be included in the Old Testament were written between the 12th and 2nd centuries BCE. These texts were initially transmitted orally and then written down over time.
  • Formation of the Torah: By the 5th century BCE, the first major portion of the Old Testament, the Torah (or Pentateuch), which includes Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy, was likely considered authoritative.
  • Prophets and Writings: The books of the Prophets (Nevi'im) and the Writings (Ketuvim) were gradually recognized as sacred scriptures over the next few centuries. The prophetic books, including Isaiah, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel, were widely accepted by the 2nd century BCE. The Writings, which include Psalms, Proverbs, and others, took longer to be universally accepted.
  • Council of Jamnia: A significant event in the canonization process is often associated with the Council of Jamnia (Yavne) around 90 CE. While there is some debate among scholars about the extent of its role, it is believed that this council played a part in reaffirming and defining the Jewish canon, particularly regarding the status of certain books.
  • Finalization: By the end of the 1st century CE and into the 2nd century CE, the canon of the Old Testament was largely established. The texts that were accepted became part of the Jewish canon, though there were variations in which books were included in different Jewish communities.
