“Does understanding Greek and Hebrew make you holy or make you knowledgeable?”

It certainly gives you the tools to become knowledgeable and in particular to eliminate interpretations that are impossible due to language structure.

Does it make you holy? No... unless you apply what you learn using the language tool.

It should be noted that ignorance does not make you more knowledgeable or holy either.
