The Hebrew Bible, also known as the Tanakh, is a collection of ancient texts sacred to the Jewish faith. It is divided into three main parts: the Torah (the first five books), the Nevi'im (the Prophets), and the Ketuvim (the Writings). These texts contain laws, stories, poetry, and prophecies that shape the beliefs and practices of Judaism.
In addition to its religious significance, the Hebrew Bible has influenced many other cultures and religions, including Christianity and Islam. Its narratives, such as the creation story and the life of Moses, continue to resonate with people around the world, making it a foundational text in Western literature
