'''Tanakh''' ([[Hebrew]]: '''תנ״ך''') is an acronym referring to the Hebrew Bible, formed from the names of its three parts:
 +
*[[Torah]] (''Instruction'')
 +
*Nevi'im (''Prophets'')
 +
*K'tuvim (''Sacred Writings'')
 +
 
 +
It is considered the compendium of the teachings of God to human beings in document form, using direct communication with [[Moses|Moshe]]; communicating through the Prophets and Prophetesses of the [[Judaism|Jewish]] people; and through works inspired by "Ruach HaKodesh," the Holy Spirit, in the Sacred Writings.
 +
 
 +
The composition of the ''Tanakh'' was determined by the ''Anshei K'nesset HaGedolah'' (Men of the Great Assembly), under the influence of the Holy Spirit. It consists of twenty-four Books, where first and second volumes of one work are counted as one, and where all the twelve Books of the ''Shneim-'Asar,'' (Twelve Prophets) are also considered as one.
