No, the apostles would not.

The apostles used what Yeshua used: The ancient Hebrew texts.

Those that later translated the apostles to Greek copped out in some cases and copied the LXX

Ah, the lost, never before seen Hebrew originals of the NT texts!

Cultic nuttery.

Your cultic nuttery must be what would cause you to expect the originals of the true texts, but not for the Greek, huh?

I suppose the Disciples would have been expected to use kevlar backed skins.

The original words of the first gospel written are available in their original language, complete, backed by 28 separate finds with scant differences.

editor-surveyor,

Do you believe all of the NT books were written in Hebrew? I believe it is possible one or two of the gospels were written in Hebrew (we’ll probably never know in this lifetime). But even if that were true, the fact that the Apostles, or their first century translators used the Septuagint for 6 out of 7 verses would indicate an incredibly high regard for LXX.

The two books I’ve read on the possibility of Hebrew gospels are:
