The Protestant Old Testament is similar to the Hebrew Bible. The Protestant Bible also contains the New Testament, however. This includes the four gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke and John); the Acts of the Apostles; Paul's letters (one to the Romans, two to the Corinthians, one each to the Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians and Colossians, two to the Thessalonians, two to Timothy, one to Titus, one to Philemon); the letter to the Hebrews (which has often been attributed to Paul); one letter from James, two from Peter, three from John, and one from Jude; and the Revelation of John.
The teachings of Judaism can be found in the The Hebrew Bible, the Mishna, The Talmud, and many other texts.
The book of Tobit is one of the texts in Greek that are correctly called Deuterocanonical by Catholics, and are entitled (less correctly) Apocrypha by Protestants. During the Reformation, only the books belonging to the Hebrew Bible (in Hebrew and Aramaic) were included in the Protestant Old Testament, whereas Catholics continued to include the Greek texts in their Old Testament, as well as the Hebrew and Aramaic texts.
The Bible translation considered to be closest to the original Hebrew and Greek texts is the New American Standard Bible (NASB).
Yes, Jonah is considered a prophet in religious texts, specifically in the Hebrew Bible and the Quran.
The Apocrypha, a collection of texts included in some versions of the Bible, was removed from the Protestant Bible during the Reformation in the 16th century. Key figures like Martin Luther argued against their inclusion based on their lack of Hebrew origins and disputed theological content. While the Roman Catholic Church retained the Apocrypha in the Douay-Rheims Bible, most Protestant denominations adopted the 39-book canon, excluding these texts. The decision solidified with the publication of the King James Version in 1611, which did not include the Apocryphal books.
The Protestant Bible has no specific name associated with it, other than "the Bible" or "the Holy Bible." The distinction is usually in the content; the Protestant Bible omits the Apocrypha and the Deuterocanonical books usually included in Roman Catholic texts. Both Catholic and Protestant Bibles come in a wide variety of translations.
The Hebrew language code is significant in understanding ancient texts because many important religious and historical documents, such as the Hebrew Bible, were written in Hebrew. Understanding the language allows scholars to accurately interpret and analyze these texts, providing insights into the beliefs, practices, and culture of ancient civilizations.
No, the King James Version of the Bible is not the original version. The original texts of the Bible were written in Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek, and the King James Version is a translation of those texts into English that was completed in 1611.

Yes, it can be found in Psalms 83 v 18 in the King James Version. "Jehovah" is an English word, the bible was originally not however written in English but was written in Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek. "Jehovah" (like Jesus, Jerusalem, John and Joseph) is an English transliteration of the Hebrew personal name for God written in the Hebrew letters that correspond to the roman letters YHWH. This name (translated in English as" Jehovah") was found in the original texts of the bible nearly 7000 times.
The Faith Chapter of the Bible is found in Hebrews 11. Enjoy the read :)
The Aramaic name for God is "Elah" or "Eloah." It is significant in religious texts as it is used to refer to the one true God in the Hebrew Bible and other ancient Semitic texts.
