The Cantos by Ezra Pound. I received a copy of it for graduation. I've always read it piecemeal here and there. Recently I decided to go through the whole thing cover to cover. Pound minces no words in his indictment of Jews, particularly where usury is concerned. In Canto 52, he replaces the Jewish surname Rothschild with “Stinkschuld,” implying corruption and decay. It's called poetry for a good reason.

About to go through Yockey’s Imperium and take notes this time. Next up is a re-review of Richard Carrier’s On The Historicity Of Jesus to take notes on as well. Then looking to reread Plato’s Republic and then start Nietzsche.
I'm still working on my first read through of the Bible. I finished the New Testament several months ago, and started reading the Greek Old Testament (Septuagint) a little while ago, under the recommendation from Stone Choir. They (Stone Choir) just finished their series on the Septuagint, arguing that the Greek is true form of the Old Testament, if anyone wants to check it out. It's a multi episode series that covers a lot of ground, including the history of the changes, why Hebrew was embraced over the Greek, and a comparison between the Hebrew and Greek.
Can you give a main difference between the two?
The Septuagint is written in Koine Greek, which that entire area spoke after Alexander the Great conquered it and Hellenized the area (the peoples were forced to accept and practice Greek culture, language, and customs). The jews at that time spoke a little Aramaic, but mostly Koine Greek. They didn't speak Hebrew, and couldn't. Even the Romans spoke in Koine Greek back then.
The Hebrew Old Testament (which is what most modern Bibles use) is written in the reinvented "new" Hebrew language, which has very little connections to ancient Hebrew, which died out as a language when the Israeli tribes were conquered and/or destroyed. This happened because ancient Hebrew doesn't have written vowels, but still uses them orally when speaking, which is why ancient Hebrew was an oral language, and if the oral tradition dies out (it did), the meaning of words is lost because the vowels are up for interpretation. Like English, ancient Hebrew was roughly 35-45% vowels. Imagine losing 35-45% of a language, and trying to interpret anything accurately. Remove all vowels from words, and see how much you can interpret accurately.
That's what the jews tried to do in Jesus's time. Through racial hubris they tried to reincarnate a language that God had destroyed, because of the sins of their fathers. However, just like today, they believed in the superiority of jews, so they tried to reinvent the language, muddying up all the translations. They even admit that they couldn't accurately interpret their own ancient writings, but they did so anyway and rewrote numerous passages to make them look better.
In any case, the Old Testament was preserved in Koine Greek (the Septuagint) even though ancient Hebrew died out. The reinvented Hebrew muddled the interpretations, and often changed a lot of the Old Testament to remove sections that referenced the coming messiah (Jesus), make God look like an idiot and/or evil, make the jews look more innocent, and make the Old Testament entirely about them, removing references to "the nations" (all other peoples), and instead focusing entirely on the jews. Only 6 or 7 instances in the New Testament, which hold similar readings in the Septuagint, align more closely with the Hebrew. All other quotes of the Old Testament, by Jesus and the disciples, in the New Testament explicitly use the Septuagint, and not the Hebrew OT. By that metric alone, Christians should be using the Septuagint, because that's what Jesus and the disciples used.
If you want to listen to the arguments yourself, this is the first video on their 8 part series on the Septuagint:

[Cuentos de Buenas Noches](https://editorialgribaudo.com/libros/cuentos-de-buenas-noches/)
It's a collection of traditional fairy tales that practically every American kid has grown up with, but written in Spanish.
I like it because of instead of the usual "he said/she said" in regular books, children's books really employ synonyms to great effect; "he exclaimed!", "she gushed", "he shouted".

Already knowing how the stories progress, it's helping my Spanish, but so far it's taken about three months to work through, and I'm still not done.
