1Peter 1:
[7] That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:
[8] Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory:
[9] Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls.

The LXX is OT scriptures not NT.
Rom. 3:28-30, "For we maintain that a man is justified by faith apart from works of the Law.
Rom. 4:5, "But to the one who does not work, but believes in Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is reckoned as righteousness,"
Rom. 5:1, "therefore having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,"
The LXX is of use as a translation lexicon, since it was done by the Hebrew sages.
It provides an exact corresponding match from Greek back to proper Hebrew.
It involves considerable search of course. A very tedious but rewarding process.
The LXX is the source of almost all of the information that Strong claims under his own name. That is how he got his word equivalences.
I haven't seen where anyone has suggested that either name "Jesus" or "Christ" are satanic names. What they are, are pseudonyms (e.g., God, Lord, Elohim) and thereby lessen the power and the meaning behind the true personal names as assigned by the Almighty himself - something that Satan probably isn't unhappy about.
Rom 3:21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
Romans 6:14 For sin will have no mastery over you, because you are not under law but under grace.
Romans 7:6 But now we have been released from the law, because we have died to what controlled us, so that we may serve in the new life of the Spirit and not under the old written code.
There you go again!
Whole chapters are required to get the real meaning.
The short clips that you extract literally produce a way to make scripture lie.

From everything I read, they despised the Greek language so they chose instead to continue with Aramaic as their language of international trade.
>> “My impression is that Rood and his followers claim Jesus Christ is a satanic name” <<
Jesus is of course an English trick to avoid using the name Joshua, which is his name.
But the Greek Ieasous came from not Yehoshua, but from a Rabbinical curse phrase acronym: YSU, the first characters of Yimach Shimo Vezichro. It means “Let his name be abolished and never remembered.” The Pharisees truly hated Yeshua. He completely upset their apple cart.

More man made slogans and crafted excuses.
The word succeeds man’s squirming and wiggling with the truth, as long as the full context is read.
Most Jews couldn’t speak Aramaic anyway. Their entire lives revolved around their childhood teaching of Torah, which was only in Hebrew.
Likely less spoke Greek and lesser still able to read or write it.
I guess the real question is if Rood serves Manischewitz at his seminars.
Hebrew and Aramaic are closely related, but their style and syntax are widely divergent.
I think Rood is a Pinot drinker.

Your last sentence is clear and I agree. A seeker (seek ye The Lord) or more accurately one who is called will be examined IAW the Law (Mt Sinai) and be found lacking (as with the rich young man Luke 18). Which leads us to the deliverance of the shed Blood of Messiah (Mt Zion).
Such an approach is at the very heart of Evangelical witnessing. That and witnessing by deed because the fruits of our regeneration (Holy Spirit quickens us) is testimony of Christ’s Power.

Don’t kid yourself! - He’s a stickler for tradition, and there was certainly no grape juice available for Passover until the 20th century.
