What is the Hebrew word for TaNaK?

Tanakh (תנ״ך) is an acronym for the 3 sections of the Hebrew Bible: the Torah, the Prophets (nevi'im) and the Writings (ketuvim)


What did the early christian called the Hebrews scriptures they adopted?

Being that most of Christ's teachings were based on the Hebrew writings, early Christians referred to the Jewish TaNaK, which is the Hebrew Bible. Many of the different books of the New Testament were originally written and published separately, so many early Christians added them to their Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible, called the Septuagint. It wasn't until the books of the New Covenant, or the New Testament, were beginning to be canonized into an organized Christian bible, with the books of the TaNaK at it's basis, when the Hebrew texts were seen as the Old Testament.


What are the similar parts in the Old Testament of tanak?

The Tanach is the Jewish Bible. The Christian Old Testament was based on the Tanach, however, it was modified to support the teachings of Christianity. Changes made were the order of books, grammar, word changes, removal of text, and addition of text.


Why do Catholics have a different canon of scripture for the Old Testament than Jews and some other Christian groups?

The books used in the TaNaK (the Hebrew Bible) are almost the same ones, which were canonized into the Catholic old testament. The main difference between the two cannons is the order the books are presented. The TaNaK is organized with the Torah, also called the Pentateuch (Genesis through Deuteronomy), as the first five books, because they were the most important and establish the laws of God. The next section is the Nevi'im, which is the all of the teachings from the prophets after Moses. The last section is the Ketuvim, which means "Writings," and contains all the poetic and historical Hebrew Literature. When the Catholics canonized the books of the TaNaK into the Old Testament, the books were rearranged to follow a more of a chronological order of event. The first five books (the Torah), were left unmoved, but everything else was scattered. More or less the Catholic canon moved most of the prophet's books, and put them towards the back of the old testament, without changing their original order. The writings were placed between the Pentateuch and the books of the prophets, and the order of those books was changed. Other small changes included the Catholics dividing the books of Samuel, Kings and Chronicles into 2 books each (1 & 2 Samuel/Kings/Chronicles), but the content was unchanged. The books of Ezra and Nehemiah where one book in the TaNaK, but the Catholics separated them into two separate books. Some non Catholic, Christian religions have changed the order of the books even further, and some may have added additional Hebrew texts, not found in the Hebrew Bible.
