The main Jewish scripture is the Torah, which consists of the first five books of the Hebrew Bible--what Chrstians call the Old Testament. Jews don't call it the Old Testament because to them there has been no New Testament (covenant with God); they feel theirs is still valid. The Torah is believed to be the word of God, transmitted by Moses. The Hebrew term for the Old Testament is Tanakh.
