Tanakh (Hebrew: תנ״ך) is an acronym referring to the Hebrew Bible, formed from the names of its three parts:

  • Torah (Instruction)
  • Nevi'im (Prophets)
  • K'tuvim (Sacred Writings)

It is considered the compendium of the teachings of God to human beings in document form, using direct communication with Moshe; communicating through the Prophets and Prophetesses of the Jewish people; and through works inspired by "Ruach HaKodesh," the Holy Spirit, in the Sacred Writings.

The composition of the Tanakh was determined by the Anshei K'nesset HaGedolah (Men of the Great Assembly), under the influence of the Holy Spirit. It consists of twenty-four Books, where first and second volumes of one work are counted as one, and where all the twelve Books of the Shneim-'Asar, (Twelve Prophets) are also considered as one.

The twenty-four Books are:

I Torah

II Nevi'im

  • 6-9: Nevi'im Rishonim (Early Prophets):

III K'tuvim
