The Bible's original texts consists of Hebrew, greek, and Chaldee (which is the language of the Babylonians since Judah was taken captive for 69 years). The Scriptures are not a mish-mosh of other religions, it is the Word of God that was penned by those chosen of God to do so, and come thru to us in whichever language was prevalent for the time and location. Knowledge of all three Biblical languages is essential to the full understanding of the manuscripts, and is what the deeper student of Gods Word will need to get a handle on. Language is different from religions, though.

Yup. Probably with others thrown into the mix; 1st century Palestine was a crossroads of cultures.

No, it isn't. It's based on the events of the Life of Jesus Christ, Our Lord and Savior, and on His Death.
