I'd just like to remind everyone that the old testament, as it is 
currently written, has not changed at all in about 2500 years... there is 
a written copy of it dating back about that far (I don't remember the 
exact #) It is still written in the same exact script, with the
 same flourishes and all as it was then. That is one of the biggest 
traditions in Judaism. As to things being lost to translation, I can 
assure you that most of what is in the Christian bible's translations is 
relatively accurate (although I haven't gone over it with a fine toothed 
comb). thus, the Roman/Greek legends and those of the Bible are probably 
based on what were, essentially, the same events.
