Bible Study OT quotes in the NT resource?

This may be a limited topic thread but I was wondering if there were any resources (web sites, charts, etc.) that list every OT verse that is quoted in the NT (and where it is quoted). This would be invaluably helpful for my Bible studies. I wonder also if any resources compare the Septuagint version of the OT verse to the original Hebrew.

Equally valuable would be suggestions of where OT verses are thought to be alluded to, though not directly quoted, in the NT.

Thanks,

Josh

Here's a NT quote that doesn't appear in the OT...Matt.2:23
 

Mucho gracias! Danke Shon!

Here's a NT quote that doesn't appear in the OT...Matt.2:23

I know, such "quotes" are composite teachings, and they are throughout the NT. Some quotes are combinations of two or more verses. These are composite or general teachings, and it seems that it was common to do so in those days among the scribes. I believe that Isaiah 11:1 is a major contributor to this particular composite quote though, because it is Messianic and the Hebrew word for "Branch" is "Nazar".

I found a link on this as I was typing this and it also affirms this: http://www.studylight.org/dic/hbd/view.cgi?number=T4699

It gave as one example:

"Composite quotations combine two or more Old Testament texts drawn from one or more of the sections of the Hebrew Old Testament canon (The Law, Prophets, and Writings). For example, Romans 11:8-10 quotes from the Law (Deuteronomy 29:4), the Prophets (Isaiah 29:10) and the writings (Psalms 69:22-23). "

P.S. Thanks again, that chart will help.

God Bless,

Josh
 
Are there any Septuagint resources? Comparing the Hebrew-Greek relationship between the words would also be very helpful.
