I am not the one claiming that God changes His dealings with mankind, you are

In your dreams. God is not partial towards any one in paritcular. He is the way He is, always has been and always will be; that which is Perfect does not change.

Men change how they deal with God. We all worship imperfectly, and always look for a 'more perfect' union with Him.

It is clear that your own Catechism rejected the LXX for the Hebrew of the Jews

No Orthodox so-called 'catechism' rejects LXX in favor of the Chrit-denying Hebrew OT. The entire EOC community recognizes LXX as the OT 7#151; officially.

And who has denied that?

The fact is that God has made a progressive revelation of Himself through the Old and New Testament, as stated by your Orthodox Catechism I cited.

Well according the Catechism that I cited, they at least rejected the Apocrypha books because they were not in Hebrew.

So clearly, that Catechism placed a greater emphasis on the Hebrew than the Greek.
