"Secondly, by methodically citing the ancient Greek translations of
the Old Testament to demonstrate Hebrew/Aramaic influence,"

"Semitic Influence
In Greek, the construction (en daktylo theou, by finger of God)
betrays Semitic influence. Classical Greek requires an article with
the noun (daktylo, finger) governing the genitive (theou, of God)."

"Based upon the concept that all people, and thus all language, came
from these three sons, the theory was devised that all European,
Western Asian, and North African languages could be divided into three
divisions: Semitic, Hamitic, and Indo-European. According to this
theory all European languages come from the Indo-European (or
Japhetic) branch. This theory fit nicely with the established idea
that all European peoples belonged racially to the Aryan or
Indo-European racial group, and were thus descendants of Japheth.
Linguists who adhere to these ideas will admit that while the Hamitic,
Semitic, and Indo-European branches came from the same origin the
resultant languages of today bear little if any resemblance, and other
than isolated similarities to ancient far eastern Sanskrit the parent
language has been lost."
