Until the Late Middle Ages, the Western Church used the Latin Vulgate almost entirely while the Eastern Church, centered in Constantinople, mostly used the Greek Byzantine text. Biblical translation has been employed since the first translations were made from the Hebrew Bible ( Biblical Hebrew and Biblical Aramaic) into Greek (see Septuagint) and Aramaic (see Targum). There have been various debates concerning the proper family of biblical manuscripts and translation techniques that should be used to translate the Bible into other languages.
