Nick from Utah asked:
The reason I ask is I heard that a lot of Christians who speak Hebrew like the Old Hebrew better when reading the Old Testament (yes, Jews in here I know it’s not the Tanakh and you don’t like it when people mix up the two). So I heard that sometimes translators will translate the New Testament into Old Hebrew rather than Modern Hebrew, because these Christians like that language better. Jesus spoke in Aramaic, the New Testament was mostly written in Koine Greek so Hebrew wasn’t the original translation. I’m trying to find out if what I heard is true about often using Old Hebrew for New Testament translations?
This is one thing I found, “When Robert Lisle Lindsey began his work with the gospel of Mark in Israel, he initially translated it “into simple modern Hebrew from the Greek text. The text was then distributed to Hebrew-speaking readers and comments invited.” Many of those who reviewed the work expressed “the desire that the Gospels, as ancient works, should be read in Old Testament Hebrew style.” Lindsey returned to the task and prepared a translation of Mark in biblical Hebrew that has received wide acclaim.”
english learner,
Yes, the New Testament was originally in Greek. However, just like it was translated eventually into English and French, it was also translated into Hebrew. I’m trying to find out if it was mostly Modern Hebrew, or if there’s a lot of Old Biblical Hebrew translations also.

Love Allah THE REAL ONE asked:
What are the differences between the Old Testament and the Jewish Tanakh?
Are they the same? Do Jews follow the Old Testament, and the first 5 books of the OT are the Jewish Tanakh

Mark asked:
I mean do they consider Christians like heretics or people mistaken about the religion they follow (as far as the old testament is concern)
