What is Slavonic Esther: Greek Text Evidence about?

The article discusses the origins of the Slavonic Book of Esther, proposing that it is based on a lost Greek text rather than a direct translation from Hebrew. The authors, Horace G. Lunt and Moshe Taube, present evidence from various manuscripts and linguistic analysis to support their hypothesis that the Slavonic text reflects a Greek intermediary. They argue that the unique features of the Slavonic Esther, including its proper name transcriptions, suggest a Greek Vorlage that has since been lost.
