Bible Note: The whole of the Jewish Boble is refered to as the "Tanakh". The word Tanach is actually a Hebrew Acronym, that refers to Torah,Neviim, and Khetuvim. The word Torah, which literally means "teaching" refers to the Five Books of Moses. The word Neviim is the Hebrew word for "Prophets", The word "Khetuvim" is the Hebrew for the word "Writings". When you take the first letters of each word together, you get the word "TaNaKH", (The extra vowels (the two "a"s) are there simply to give the word some sounding). Torah, Neviim, and Ketuvim, are really considered sections. Amongst each section are the books allready refered to. ebrain. |
