Hebrew Bible

The sacred writings of Judaism (some dating from as early as 1200 BC), called by Christians the Old Testament. It comprises the Torah (the first five books, ascribed to Moses), the Nevi'im (books of the prophets), and the Ketuvim (the remaining books and psalms). It was originally written in Hebrew and later translated into Greek (Septuagint) and other languages.
