The Tanakh, also known as the Hebrew Bible, is the canonical collection of Jewish texts, which are divided into three parts: the Torah (Teaching), the Nevi'im (Prophets), and the Ketuvim (Writings). These texts are revered as sacred by Jews and are fundamental to Jewish identity, practice, and belief. The Tanakh is written in Hebrew, with some sections in Aramaic. It contains historical accounts, laws, prophetic messages, poetry, wisdom literature, and other genres that chronicle the relationship between God and the people of Israel. As a key component of Religious Books and Jewish Literature, the Tanakh plays a central role within Religious Holy Scriptures, providing foundational teachings, narratives, and values for Jewish life and thought.
