But like all English Bibles today (including KJV, NIV etc), they
are all still translated from translations right? The only way
to understand the original text completely is to know
Hebrew and Greek :)
And not forgetting that Bibles till about the 16th century had
73 books, not 66.
the apocryphal books are generally left out of modern
translations, as they are non canonical (by Christians faith -
don't ever get into a discussion on this point, if you still want
to argue, by protestant faith), so is 66
Plus, that statement means that you had superficial knowledge in
the translations of bible,
There are critical text, majority text, textus receptus and
varied versions of bible manuscripts, i shall not say which is
translated from which, if you wanna know, please seach up the net,
it is quite interesting
