Where was Tanakh and Talmud in the Bible?

Answer 1

The Tanach is The Bible - specifically the "Old" testament.

Tanach is actually a Hebrew acronym for Torah, Neviim (prophets), Ketuvim (writings).

The Torah is the 5 books of Moses.

The Neviim are the collection of books written by and about the Jewish prophets and the Ketuvim contain writings such as Psalms written by King David and Proverbs written by King Solomon.

Answer 2

The Tanakh is a name used in Judaism for the canon of the Hebrew Bible. The Talmud is a central text of mainstream Judaism, in the form of a record of rabbinic discussions pertaining to Jewish law, ethics, philosophy, customs and history.

Answer:

The writings of Judaism may be divided into several categories. These include: the Tanakh, the Talmud, the other works of our early sages, and the works of later Rabbis.
The Tanakh (Hebrew Bible) is also called "the Written Torah," in contrast to the Oral Torah, which is the body of tradition that was handed down orally for some 1500 years, and only after that put in writing, so as not to be forgotten in times of exile. The Oral Torah is contained in the Talmud, which is a multi-volume compendium of Jewish traditions, law, history, and sayings of the early Jewish Sages.
Contents of the Written Torah:
The Jewish holy book is the Tanakh (Jewish Bible), containing the Torah and the prophetic books.
Tanakh is a Hebrew acronym of T, N, K which stands for the three parts of the Tanakh: Torah, Nevi'im (Prophets), and Ketuvim (Writings).
A) The Torah, also called the Pentateuch, is the primary Jewish holy book. It is comprised of the five Books of Moses (also called the Books of the Law). The Torah was given by God to Moses (Exodus 24:12), who transmitted it to the people and wrote it (Deuteronomy 31:24). Its chief purpose is to teach the laws of Judaism; and it also teaches us historical highlights, attitudes, guidance, beliefs and more.
1-5: The Torah (the Five Books of Moses):
1) Bereisheet (Genesis)
2) Shemot (Exodus)
3) Vayikra (Leviticus)
4) Bamidbar (Numbers)
5) Devarim (Deuteronomy)
B) Nevi'im, The Prophets. The Jews see the book of Prophets as the Divinely-inspired story of their past and the relationship between God and Israel.
The prophets were called upon by God to guide the people and to guide the king. While the king had authority in national matters of state, and the Sanhedrin (Sages) had say in Torah-rulings and halakha (law), the prophets spoke in matters of ethics, of belief, of loyalty to God, and behavior. They rebuked the people at God's command, they predicted events which God revealed to them, they taught through Divine inspiration, and they provided optimism and hope with the prophecies of eventual Redemption.
Jewish tradition (Talmud, Bava Batra 14b) states that the prophetic books were written by the authors whose names they bear: Joshua, Samuel, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Hosea, Joel, Amos, etc. Judges is credited to Samuel, Kings was written by Jeremiah. The Prophets contain a total of 8 books according to the Jewish count.
6-9: The Nevi'im Rishonim (the Early Prophets):
6) Yehoshua (Joshua)
7) Shoftim (Judges)
8) Shemuel (Samuel I and II)
9) Melachim (Kings I and II)
10-13: The Nevi'im Acharonim (the Later Prophets):
10) Yeshayahu (Isaiah)
11) Yirmiyahu (Jeremiah)
12) Yechezkel (Ezekiel)
13) Trei Asar ("The Twelve Prophets" or Minor Prophets)
Books and Prophets within Trei Asar:
Hoshea (Hosea)
Yoel (Joel)
Amos
Ovadiah (Obadiah)
Yonah (Jonah)
Michah (Micah)
Nahum
Havakkuk (Habakkuk)
Zephaniah
Haggai
Zechariah
Malachi
C) Ketuvim, Writings. The Ketuvim contains the remaining History Books: Daniel, Lamentations, and others.
Some of these prophetical chapters (or books) detail Israelite history and past events, some predict events, some serve to comfort the nation, some speak of prayer and love of God, and some speak of life, experience and wisdom.
Jewish tradition (Talmud, Bava Batra 14b) states that the prophetic books were written by the authors whose names they bear: Daniel, Ezra, Nehemiah, etc. Ruth was written by Samuel; Lamentations was written by Jeremiah; Psalms was set in writing by King David; Chronicles was written by Ezra; Proverbs, Song of Songs and Kohellet (Ecclesiastes) were written by King Solomon; and Esther was written by Mordecai and Esther. Concerning Job, the Talmud states more than one opinion as to when it was written. The Writings consists of 11 books by the Jewish count:
14-16: The "Sifrei Emet"
14) Tehillim (Psalms)
15) Mishlei (Proverbs)
16) Iyov (Job)
17-21: The "Five Megilot" (Five Scrolls)
17) Shir Hashirim (Song of Songs)
18) Ruth
19) Eichah (Lamentations)
20) Kohelet (Ecclesiastes)
21) Esther
22-24: The rest of the Writings:
22) Daniel
23) Ezra-Nehemiah
24) Divrei Hayamim (Chronicles I and II)
Further information:
The term "Torah" can refer loosely to the entire Jewish Bible.
Tradition places the sealing of the Tanakh's canon around 340 BCE.

Answer 3

"Tanakh" is an acronym, not a regular word. It is an abbreviation containing the first letter of each of the three words Torah, Neviim (prophets) and Ketuvim (Writings). These are the three sections of the Jewish Bible.

Answer 4

The TeNaKh is acronym for Torah, Nevi'im & Ketuvim.Torah means instruction or teaching. Torah contains the 5 books (Pentateuch) of Moses Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy. Nevi'im means the prophets, Ketuvim means the writings.

Torah confirms the events recognised by the community as acts of G-d. It is the original scared text of Judaism on which all texts are based. Highest source of authority for Jews. It is the centre of Jewish life and belief. Contains world view and way of life (mitzvot)

Nevi'im is divided into the former prophets and later prophets. The prophets' aims were to establish a proper understanding of Israel's relationship with G-d.

Ketuvim comprises non-prophetic writings deemed important for future generations and include the Psalms, Proverbs, Daniel, and Job.

The Torah is the revealed words of God but the Nevi'im and Ketuvim are not.

The Torah is treated with great respect and it is a great to be asked to read the Torah in the synagogue. The Nevi'im are read only selectively and largely as comments on the Torah. The Ketuvim does not have an important place in worship but it is recited during Shabbat, and at other festivals like Shavuot.
Tanakh stands for Torah Neviim Kesuvim. Torah is only one section of Tanakh. Tanakh is pronounced Tanach.

Answer 5

"Tanakh" is an acronym formed of the Hebrew letters "T-N-K". They're the initials

of the Hebrew words for Torah, Prophets, and Writings. Together they comprise

the body of scripture often identified in translation as the "Old Testament".

The first five books of that body are the "T" ... for "Torah". In translation, those

books are referred to as Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy.

The Talmud is a collection of discussions, arguments, legal precedents, commentaries about the Hebrew Bible, and stories told by Rabbis who lived in the 2nd century to the 6th century.
