You are way apart in category with this question. Greek had influenced several nations and the Jews were one of those. The Septuagint was the Koine Greek translation of the Hebrew Old Testament. This came around the 3rdB.C. after 4 centuries that Rome came into power as an empire. As I said, the major literary product of the contact of Judaism and Hellenistic culture is the Septuagint but there were some other writings like so-called apocrypha and pseud epigraphic apocalyptic literature like the Assumption of Moses, the Testaments of the Twelve Patriarchs, the Book of Baruch, the Greek Apocalypse of Baruch. Most of those were fiction writings of those days. Important sources are Philo of Alexandria and Flavius Josephus. Some scholars consider Paul of Tarsus a Hellenist as well and they are right about that.

You have to understand that this period is from the death of Alexander the great to the death of Cleopatra and the incorporation of Egypt in the Roman Empire. There was a contrast between Jews who used Hebrew and Jews who used Greek in the synagogue service. That came with the Hellenistic movement.
