The Jews call it the Torah.
the Torah
The most sacred part is the Torah, which is the first 5 books of the Hebrew Bible.
Yes, that's correct.
The Hebrew Bible is used for prayer, study, and is read from on special ocassions such as Holidays and Shabbat. The Torah (the first part of the Hebrew Bible) is also read from on Mondays and Thursdays.
Neither. The Hebrew Bible is a collection of 24 Holy books. The Torah is a part of the Hebrew Bible (it is the first 5 books of the Bible).
The Jewish Bible is called the Tanakh. The word "Tanakh" is an acronym made up of the names of its three sections: Torah (Teachings), Nevi'im (Prophets), and K'tuvim (Writings).Answer:Another name or the Hebrew scriptures is the Tanakh (Hebrew Bible), of which the Torah (five books of Moses) is the first part.
This question has two possible answers. The reason is that the first five Hebrew books of the Bible are not refered to as the "gospel." Only the part of the Bible that gives the accounts of the minstry of Jesus is called the gospels. The first five books of the Bible was called the Pentateuch. That refers to the first five books of the "Old Testiment," or "Hebrew Scriptures" that were written by Moses in the Hebrew language. The part of the Bible that is normally referred to as the gospels, that is, the minstry of Jesus, are the first four books of the "New Testiment," or "Greek Scriptures." This is the books of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.
Ketuvim
The entire Hebrew Bible is a great work of literature, from God himself. The Psalms and Proverbs are part of the third section of the Hebrew Bible, called Ketuvim (Writings).
Jews regard all of the books of the Hebrew Bible as holy. The holiest part of the Bible are the first 5 books, called, "The Torah".
The Christian holy books that are not part of the Hebrew Bible are called the New Testament.
The Old Testament.
