The Hebrew Bible, also known as the Tanakh, is traditionally divided into three main parts:
- Torah (Teaching or Law) - This includes the first five books: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy.
- Nevi'im (Prophets) - This section includes the former prophets (historical books) and the latter prophets (major and minor prophets).
- Ketuvim (Writings) - This diverse collection includes poetic books, wisdom literature, and other writings such as Psalms, Proverbs, and the Book of Daniel.
Together, these three parts make up the Tanakh.
