Best Answer

The Bible as Christians recognize it today did not exist. Most of the Old Testament was a part of the Torah and as such Jesus would have been familiar with it.

Jesus used the Bible as it existed in his time, both in the original Hebrew/Chaldean and in the Greek Septuagint translation, depending on his audience.

As a Jew living in Israel, Jesus would have read the scriptures in Hebrew. However, the New Testament gospels were all written in Greek and their authors showed familiarity with the Septuagint, an early Greek translation of the Hebrew scriptures.

Does eastern orthodox and Roman Catholics use same Maccabees bible?

Catholics (there is no such thing as "Roman Catholic", that is a popular misnomer) use the complete Bible which includes the Old Testament that Jesus Christ used, the Septuagint. The Septuagint does contain the books of 1st and 2nd Maccabees but it is most certainly not called the "Maccabees Bible", just the Holy Bible or Sacred Scripture. The Orthodox Bible contains all kinds of books which were not in the Septuagint, do no, we do not use the same Bibles.

How many psalms are in the Catholic book of psalms?

The Bible contains 150 psalms. The Septuagint numbers them slightly differently from the Hebrew Bible, the Septuagint (Greek Old Testament that Jesus used) has 9th and 10th psalm of the Hebrew Bible as the 9th psalm so they are all off by one up until psalm 146 and 147 which are 147.1-11 and 147.2-20 in the Hebrew so they both end up with 150.
