Tanak: Tanakh
Original Word:תַּעֲנָךְ
Part of Speech:Proper Name Location
Transliteration:Ta`anak
Pronunciation:tah-NAHK
Phonetic Spelling:(tah-an-awk')
Definition:Tanakh
Meaning:Taanak, Tanak
Word Origin:An acronym derived from the initial Hebrew letters of each of the three traditional subdivisions of the Hebrew Bible: Torah (Teaching), Nevi'im (Prophets), and Ketuvim (Writings).
Corresponding Greek / Hebrew Entries:The Greek equivalent of the Hebrew Scriptures is often referred to as the Septuagint (LXX), which is not a direct translation of the term "Tanakh" but serves a similar function in the Greek-speaking Jewish and early Christian communities. Strong's Greek entries related to the Scriptures include G1124 (γραφή, graphē) meaning "writing" or "scripture."
Usage:The term "Tanakh" refers to the canonical collection of Jewish texts, which is also a significant part of the Christian Old Testament. It is an acronym representing the three sections of the Hebrew Scriptures: the Torah, which includes the first five books of Moses; the Nevi'im, which contains the historical and prophetic books; and the Ketuvim, which encompasses the poetic and wisdom literature.
Cultural and Historical Background:The Tanakh is central to Jewish religious life and has been studied, interpreted, and revered for centuries. It was written over a period of approximately a thousand years, from around the 12th century BCE to the 2nd century BCE. The texts were originally composed in Hebrew, with some portions in Aramaic. The Tanakh has played a crucial role in shaping Jewish identity, law, and tradition, and it has also significantly influenced Christian theology and Western culture.
