Some of it, enough to basically know most of the stuff that happens in it but not enough to be able to pick out a verse for every single occasion imaginable like some pastors can do.  I'd say less than half.  There's a lot of really boring stuff in there that I honestly don't particularly feel like reading start to end.

I have read it several times and am in the process of translating my own version.

That is wrong 100% wrong.. God made the Bible who are you to make a version? No one....

Can you read both Hebrew and Greek?

If not, then you're reading a translation of at least part of the Bible too, as are likely 99.9999% of Christians.  The Old Testament was originally written in Hebrew and the New Testament was originally written in Greek.

Actually, while they did speak that, you wouldn't need it to read the original Bible, because none of the original Bible was written in Aramaic.

The More You Know. Wink

You would need it to be able to watch Jesus getting pwned without subtitles in Mel Gibson's movie, however. Smiley
