I don't think they said they were translating Hebrew. There is a documentary about this (1946: The Mistranslation That Shifted Culture) that is pretty good.

    What I'm saying is that a Hebrew version should also exist, which would have its own cultural connotations around whatever word they use. Studying it in tandem with the Greek translation would help reveal the original meaning.
