About Tanakh English
We are glad to offer a Bible version created for American Jews that could not read the Bible in Hebrew.
Download freely on your phone or tablet this English version of the Tanakh: the JPS 1917, the renowned English translation of the Tanakh.
Though the terms "Bible" and "Old Testament" are used by non-Jews to describe Judaism's scriptures, the appropriate term is "Tanakh," which is derived as an acronym of the first Hebrew letter of each of the three great divisions of the Jewish text: Torah, Nevi'im and Ketuvim.
1- Torah or books of the law that includes the five books of the Torah, which, according to traditions, were revealed directly by God to Moses on Mount Sinai: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy.
