The Septuagint ('LXX') is an early Greek translation of the Hebrew scriptures, that came into widespread use in the Greek-speaking Jewish diaspora by the time of Jesus. It differs in numerous places from the Hebrew scriptures that have come down to us as the Masoretic texts, and most of the differences are attributed to faulty translation. It is important because the New Testament was written in Greek, andall the authors - even Paul - relied on the Septuagint when reading the Old Testament. Errors in the Septuagint are therefore reflected in the New Testament.

Catholics (there is no such thing as "Roman Catholic", that is a popular misnomer) use the complete Bible which includes the Old Testament that Jesus Christ used, the Septuagint. The Septuagint does contain the books of 1st and 2nd Maccabees but it is most certainly not called the "Maccabees Bible", just the Holy Bible or Sacred Scripture. The Orthodox Bible contains all kinds of books which were not in the Septuagint, do no, we do not use the same Bibles.

The Dead Sea Scrolls provided the oldest available manuscripts of the Hebrew scriptures written in their original languages, and allowed scholars to check the accuracy of the Masoretic texts used by Judaism, as well as the accuracy of the Septuagint, an early Greek translation of the Hebrew scriptures.
Whenever the Septuagint seemed to favour Christianity, when compared with the Masoretic texts, Christian apologists had accused the Jews of altering their own holy scriptures to disadvantage Christianity. The Dead Sea Scrolls showed that the Masoretic texts were little changed from the scriptures in use early in the first century CE. This proved that most discrepancies between the Septuagint and the Masoretic texts were the result of mistranslations by the authors of the Septuagint.

The Bible as Christians recognize it today did not exist. Most of the Old Testament was a part of the Torah and as such Jesus would have been familiar with it.
Jesus used the Bible as it existed in his time, both in the original Hebrew/Chaldean and in the Greek Septuagint translation, depending on his audience.
