Understanding the Tanakh: The Complete Jewish Holy Writings

The Tanakh encompasses the foundational texts of Judaism, divided into three main sections: the Torah (Teaching), Nevi’im (Prophets), and Ketuvim (Writings). The Torah consists of five books providing guidance and laws. Nevi’im narrates prophetic messages, while Ketuvim includes diverse writings such as Proverbs, attributed to King Solomon around 960 BCE, which convey wisdom through collections of sayings. This holistic view of Jewish scripture serves as an essential resource for understanding Judaism and its teachings.
