I never said the original New Testament was in Greek.

The Amplified Bible is a literal Greek translation of the original Hebrew text.

I’m sorry if I didn’t make that clear.

However, remember that Luke was Greek - and his Gospel might have originally been in Greek. Also .. Paul spoke several languages .. and while I’d have to research it - Greek was a known language of Paul’s time and I believe he spoke that language, along with Hebrew and Latin.

Quite interesting. Of course, all history interests me.

Bless you and have a wonderful day!
