Hebrew Bible

Also known as Tanakh, Hebrew Scriptures, or Old Testament
Book • 800
The Hebrew Bible, also known as the Tanakh, is a canonical collection of Hebrew scriptures divided into three main sections: the Torah (or Pentateuch), the Nevi'im (Prophets), and the Ketuvim (Writings).

It contains 24 books and was written primarily in Hebrew, with some passages in Aramaic.

The texts narrate the history and traditions of the Jewish people, including the creation of the world, the genealogy and history of the Israelites, and their relationship with God. The Hebrew Bible is central to both Judaism and Christianity, providing the foundational texts for these religions.
