For what it's worth, here's a quick listing of NT citations from the
LXX Penateuch (and which differ from the Hebrew text of the same). Since
Matt is willing to concede the existence of a BCE LXX Pentateuch, this
would seem to clinch the argument that the NT cited from a BCE LXX (at
least as regards the Torah).

Thanks for these. I was just wondering how I was going to do that exercise
without a copy of the LXX in Greek. Did you do it from first principles, or
do you have a handy source book? If it's a source book can you tell me what
it is and what other goodies it contains?
