The Bible as a complete book that we today wasn't written until the 690s and it was written in Latin. All of the so-called Greek Bibles were written in the modern Greek alphabet. And if you want to have some fun get a copy of a Greek Bible like the so-called Codex Sinaiticus http://www.jacksonsnyder.com/yah/manuscr...iticus.pdf and copy some verses and put them into a translator program. n https://www.bing.com/translator/ = one of many.
Who claimed the Bible was originally written in Greek?
Obviously the Old testament which is part of the Bible wasn't written in Greek, but the New testament was, being mainly a compilation of letters to various different Churches throughout Asia Minor, to Rome, seeing how Greek was the lingua franca at that time.
