Summary
Date: 1st Century B.C.E.
The Septuagint translations of Ecclesiastes and Song of Songs are so literal in their translation style that, like Ruth, they have been associated with the Hebraizing "kaige" group of the first century BCE/CE. Any stylistic or contextual differences, if they exist, are so subtle as to be so far unnoticed.
