Tanakh

Religion: The Tanakh [Full Text]

 

Though the terms “Bible” and “Old Testament” are commonly used by non-Jews to describe Judaism‘s scriptures, the appropriate term is “Tanach,” which is derived as an acronym from the Hebrew letters of its three components: Torah, Nevi’im and Ketuvim.

Torah – Pentateuch

Navi – Prophets

Ketuvim – Writings


Sources:Jewish Publication Society, 1917, from the Jewish Bible
