Symmachus (translator)
:''For the Jewish Tanna sage, see Symmachus ben Joseph.''
Symmachus (; "ally"; fl. late 2nd century) translated the Old Testament into Greek. His translation was included by Origen in his ''Hexapla'' and ''Tetrapla'', which compared various versions of the Old Testament side by side with the Septuagint. Some fragments of Symmachus's version that survive, in what remains of the ''Hexapla'', inspire scholars to remark on the purity and idiomatic elegance of Symmachus' Greek. He was admired by Jerome, who used his work in composing the ''Vulgate''.
==Life==
Eusebius inferred that Symmachus was an Ebionite (Ἐβιωνίτης Σύμμαχος ''"Symmachus the Ebionite"''), but this is now generally thought to be unreliable. The alternative is that he was a Samaritan who converted to Judaism.〔.〕〔Epiphanius, ''Treatise on Weights and Measures'' - Syriac Version (ed. James Elmer Dean), Chicago University Press c1935, p. 32. (Click to see online translation of Epiphanius' ''Treatise on Weights and Measures'' )〕 Epiphanius' account that Symmachus was a Samaritan who having quarrelled with his own people converted to Judaism is now given greater credence, since Symmachus' exegetical writings give no indication of Ebionism.〔.〕 At some time in his life, he had also written a commentary on the Aramaic Gospel of Matthew, known then as ''According to the Hebrews''.
