They didnt. It's kinda funny to realise that up until a century ago the majority of christcucks in the world never read the Bible

>>18003422
They didn't because before St Jerome the Bible as we knew it didn't exist and after St Jerome most Christians were illiterate as ancient and medieval peasants were. Though, those that read the Bible I imagine read the Vulgate along with the Septuagint, and other scriptures in Hebrew, Koine Greek, and other semitic languages.

They didn't they just believe whatever Rabbi Christberg told them

There was no exact canon untill the mid-late 2nd century, Marcion has the first complete one we know of and it's wastly different from the canon we have today.
The fact that the author of Jude considers 1 Enoch to be scripture is pretty telling, and shows that 1st century christians considered many non-canonical books to be inspired, including many losts works.

>early Christians
They didn't, there was no canon established yet, so it was probably just the Torah + whatever local story about Jesus was popular in your area
>medieval Christians
A pastor interpreted the work for them, you were a Catholic by default, and a single copy of a Bible was handwritten and costed about as much as a house
>post-reformation Christians
Pastor or whatever end-times charismatic leader thought about the return of Jesus was accurate and true, printed books were still roughly as expensive as a house
>modern Christians
Price finally begins to drop, though this also give people from lower classes access to it, favoring literalist interpretations of the Bible, simply because that's the most commom one, not the most academic one
>postmodern Christians
The Bible means whatever fits with current event/current political movement

oral tradition

They just hooted and hollered and that was good enough in the negrome empire to pass for a religion.

They couldn't. Many early Christians spoke Latin, not Hebrew.
