noun Tanakh, Tanak n. (Also spelled Tanach) A term used among Jews for the Hebrew Bible; the Old Testament. Note: Although Christians use the term "Old Testament", this term implies the superseding force of the "New Testament", not recognized as revelation by the Jewish faith. "The Hebrew Bible is divided into three parts: (1) The Torah, "Law," or Pentateuch. (2) The Prophets... (3) The Kethubim, or the "Writings," generally termed Hagiographa."
