    pretty sure you are thinking of hebrew. Thats what most people read it in(aside from there first language).

    although I don't doubt there is a greek translation.

    also some teachers are funny like that, I have class that won't let you pass unless you pass a certain part of a assignment(which is only worth 20% of the grade).

    Seems like you should be getting an A-. That's still an A though.

    Old Testament was originally written in Hebrew and Aramaic (targum) while the New Testament was in Greek. there is also a Greek translation of the OT call the Septuagint (LXX). there's some trivia for you to impress your friends

    BTW ἔργον ἀγαθόν, saltwaterguy. if you're interested in some bible reading, the NT is actually in a messy form of Greek called Koine. if you know ancient well enough to rock exams, you should be able to piece enough of it together. Nestle-Aland (27th ed) is the best Greek bible you can get your hands on. otherwise, get a good copy of Plato's Republic and go to town. lots of dangerous ideas in there for a 14 year old ;)

    cool. not sure what you said in greek though, most likely because i haven't learned that yet lol. our sample sentences are mainly women going to an athenian festival, Theseus killing the Minotaur, and a master with his slave in the field
