Septuagint

They may have well been copying copies of copies. But they were excellent copies existing in the 1st century AD. They were far more accurate than what has come to us . There are no errors originally in the New Testament. That includes quotations of the Old Covenant into the New Covenants writings. The Apostles and their companions had far more accurate manuscript than what has come down to us in the later Masoretic Tradition as well as our Septuagint Manuscripts.
More nonsense, the Dead Sea Scrolls proved that our copies today are very close to the copies available near the first century.

Your claim the Greek NT references were exactly what the original OT autographs in Hebrew where is something you made up.

The Dead Sea Scrolls prove that all Text types existed side by side in the 1st century AD. The Septuagint, the pre-Masoretic Text, the Samaritan and some independents not exactly aligned with the others. The Apostles and their companions used the Original Text in the New Testament writings ✍️. It was usually closer to the Septuagint than Masoretic text, but not always.
