Please don't say "the Septuagint" because I know that this has fallen out of favor among most modern Jews (the only exception being Beta Israel, which I believe still uses it - correct me if I am mistaken on that.)
I know that the Torah was translated into Yevanic Greek in 1547 by Romaniote Jews for the "Constantinople Pentateuch," but this is just the first 5 books. Has the remainder of the Masoretic Text been translated into Greek specifically by Jews and specifically for Jewish use?
I also know about the Greek translation by Aquila/Onkelos but this has not survived apart from a few fragments.
