How come all translations are in Greek or English?. The bible was written by Hebrews and translated to Greek. The english words are shown in greek, but not Hebrew as well. To get better understanding need to see and define bible more in hebrew

Lynden,

The New Testament was written in Greek while the majority of the Old Testament was written in Hebrew. The Hebrew you see today is actually Aramaic.

You will find that we also have the Septuagint, which is the Old Testament translated into Greek. If you want to see the Hebrew lexicon, you 'll need to be in the OT.
