I think what is meant by different versions of Bible is misunderstanding of the different translations of the

Bible which are called by the name of the translator or person who ordered the translation like King James's Bible. However this doesn't mean there are different Bibles it just that translations are hard to do.

My point was that his assertion was misleading.  Of course Christian bibles can have different meanings, because few people read the Christian "NT" in its original Greek, and very few Christians can read the Hebrew Bible in Hebrew.  Their entire understanding is based on whoever translated it for them.

However, the "Hebrew Bible" is written and read in its original language Hebrew with a little Aramaic, thus there is no translating, and no different versions (although there are Jewish translations for those who can only read english, however observant Jews read it in Hebrew).
