    The Greek translation of the Old Testament is called the septuagint.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The Greek translation of the Old Testament is called the septuagint. This translation was completed in the 3rd century BCE and is significant because it was the first translation of the Hebrew Bible into another language. The septuagint became widely used among Greek-speaking Jews and later among early Christians. It includes additional books that are not found in the Hebrew Bible, known as the Apocrypha. The septuagint played a crucial role in the spread and interpretation of the Old Testament in the Hellenistic world.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    The original language of the New Testament was not Hebrew, but rather Greek. The New Testament was written in Greek because it was the common language of the Eastern Mediterranean region during the time when the texts were written. Hebrew was primarily used for religious and scholarly purposes, while Greek was the language of commerce and communication. This is why the New Testament was written in Greek, allowing it to reach a wider audience and be more accessible to people of different backgrounds.
