@Uninteresting It was because it was? That doesn't make sense.

the original copies were written in a time period where greek was very prevalent

@Deleted User ur trying to deny a basic fact m8

@Chaiske And is doubt unable to be made because of a lack of evidence?

the evidence is piled against you in this claim that ur making

@Uninteresting I am sure that people spoke greek in palestine.

Doubt is simply pointless without evidence to back it up.

And yes, they did. Palestine was a Roman province, and the lingua franca of Eastern Rome generally was Koine Greek.

and they didnt write it all in palestine as well

@Chaiske And is doubt pointless if there is lacking evidence behind the opposing persons argument?

the new testament that is

@Chaiske Because the palestinians sure were romans.

Yes, they were Roman citizens under Roman rule.

@Uninteresting So the bible was written in palestine, and most of the new testament?

And no, the Bible wasn't written in Palestine.

thats literally the opposite of what i said

are you pretending to be retarded

@Chaiske It was a response to him.

@Uninteresting Then in what other area's did they write it in?

i dont have that information off the top of my head

hold up

@Chaiske This literally states that it was written in israel, which is PALESTINE.

whether or not there was a hebrew version

there is no concrete evidence

only speculation

what we do have is evidence of the greek texts

Where does it say it was written in Israel?

@Uninteresting The bible states that god spoke to moses and had him write the first bible in hebrew, it isn't that hard to figure out.

the first bible was the old testament you retard

the new testament was written by the apostles and other people in later years

And the old testament was written by moses.

That first bible is the Hebrew Bible, part of the Old Testament and part of Jewish scripture.

we're not denying that

The Old Testament is mostly a record of Jewish religious practice.

you just have to remember the temporal divide between the old and the new

@Chaiske Such as?

the specifics of the old testament are irrelevant lmao
