I wanted to find certain parts of the original bible text (as in the original language it was written in) because I heard about certain parts of the bible being mistranslated and the original meaning being distorted as a result, and I wanted to verify this myself.
Excellent reason to look into it!
If that's your motivation, I'd also suggest learning about the First Council of Nicaea in AD 325, where some powerful men got together to unify Christian doctrine. Meaning they were appointed to decide which parts of the then-current diversity of Christian peoples' beliefs were to be retained and which were suddenly judged to not be Christian anymore.
As you might be able to tell, I don't trust those guys mucking around in it, at what to us is the dawn of the Church. Everything cascaded from there
