    I have no idea what motives the Rabbis had who helped Saint Jerome to learn Hebrew and may have helped Saint Jerome obtain Hebrew manuscripts from which to translate. Some do think that the Jewish people assisting Saint Jerome did intend to deal negatively with Christian tradition.

    World Why do you think Iran views America as “The Great Satan”?

    Excellent. I am not worried either. Iran is a long way away and its people - 84 million of them - are entitled to dislike the USA if they want to. But it is likely that it is the government of Iran that arranges the propaganda in Iran about the USA.
