Well, if the original Greek said..., then why haven’t the various bibles been written that way.

The original WAS written in Greek (NT anyway).

The translators had motives.

“The translators had motives.”

There could have been “evil” motives.

But the primary motive was to give German speaking people a Bible in German, not Latin and not Greek, and then Dutch, then English and on and on until the Bible was available in every language.

Latin was not the “language” of G-d.
