	Symmachus the Ebionite (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-11)
		Symmachus the Ebionite (late 2nd century CE), was the author of one of the Greek versions of the Old Testament that were 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' version that survive in what remains of the Hexapla inspire scholars to remark on the purity and idiomatic elegance of Symmachus' Greek, which was admired by Jerome, who used it freely in composing the Vulgate.
		The Ebionites were practising Jews, mainly in Israel, Syria and Cappadocia, who accepted Jesus as the Messiah, without accepting the virgin birth and other dogma that were increasingly insisted upon by Pauline Christians, who eventually rejected the Ebionites as heretics.

	Ebionites - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Ebionites (from Hebrew; Ebionim, "the poor ones") were a sect of Judean followers of John the Baptizer and Jesus (Yeshua in Aramaic) who existed in Judea (later Palestine) during the early centuries of the Common Era.
		Since the early Ebionites clearly did believe in the ability of Jesus to perform powerful miracles, it may be possible that the charges of their denying his divinity, etc. were merely propaganda on the part of the patristic sources, eager to paint them as heretics.
		Ebionites believed that all followers of Jesus, whether they be Jewish or Gentile, must adhere to Noahide Laws and Mosaic law through an either more restorative (Essene) or progressive (Pharisee) interpretation and observance, tempered with the wisdom teachings of Jesus.

		Virtually no writings of the Ebionites have survived, (but seebelow) except as excerpted in the writings of orthodox Christian theologians,such as Irenaeus, Hippolytus, and Tertullian, who considered the Ebionites to be " heretics." Pauline Christians sometimes distinguished Ebionites as separate from the Nazarenes, one author often depending upon another for his assessment.

		It seems that the Ebionites also rejected the doctrine of atonement for sin through the death of Jesus, and judged posthumous sightings of Jesus as spiritual experiences such as dreams and visions rather than an actual physical resurrection.
		Therefore, they rejected as a lie Paul's assertion, in his letter to the Philippians (3:5), that he was "circumcised on the eighth day, of the people of Israel, of the tribe of Benjamin, a Hebrew of Hebrews; in regard to the law, a Pharisee" (TNIV).

	Ancient Hostile Witnesses
		The Ebionites, following these, assert that He was begotten by Joseph; thus destroying, as far as in them lies, such a marvelous dispensation of God, and setting aside the testimony of the prophets which proceeded from God.
		But the heresy of the Ebionites, as it is called, asserts that Christ was the son of Joseph and Mary, considering him a mere man, and insists strongly on keeping the law in a Jewish manner, as we have seen already in this history.
		Commentaries of Symmachus are still extant in which he appears to support this heresy by attacking the Gospel of Matthew.

		The name may have been self-imposed by those who gladly claimed the beatitude of being poor in spirit, or who claimed to live after the pattern of the first Christians in Jerusalem, who laid their goods at the feet of the Apostles.

	"Theories of the Translation Process" by Bruce M. Metzger
		This was by Symmachus, an Ebionite Christian of Jewish background.
		To judge from the scattered fragments that remain of his translation, Symmachus tended to be paraphrastic in representing the Hebrew original.
		On the one hand in his letter to Sunnia and Fretela, Jerome declared that the work of a good translator consists in rendering idiomatic expressions of one language into the modes of expression native to the other.

		The SeptuagintA renders the name as Baalzeboub, SeptuagintB as Baal myîan 'Baal of flies' but Symmachus the Ebionite rendered it as Beelzeboul for reasons unknown.
		It is unknown whether Symmachus was correct in identifying these names or not since we otherwise know nothing about either of them.
		Zeboul might derive from a slurred pronunciation of zebûb; from 'zebel', a word used to mean 'dung' in the Targums; or from Hebrew zebûl found in 1 Kings 8.13 in the phrase bêt-zebûl 'lofty house' and used in Rabbinical writings to mean 'house' or 'temple' and also as the name for the fourth heaven.
