you just have to remember the temporal divide between the old and the new
@Chaiske Such as?
the specifics of the old testament are irrelevant lmao
The first few books of the Bible, e.g. Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy, are part of the Tanakh, comprising the Torah.
i think ur just arguing for the sake of arguing at this point
That is to say, those first books are literally the Torah.
@Chaiske That's dancing around the question, don't you think?
Not really?
You asked which part of the Old Testament is part of Jewish practice.
The answer was that, for example, the first few books are part of the Torah, a central text in Judaism.
@Chaiske Well you are not actually providing any specifics and are just stating that they were apart of the torah.
because theyre irrelevant
Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy, for example, state specific laws on conduct with God.
especially in a discussion about the new testament
@Chaiske Such as? And how do they prove that the bible was jewish?
By the fact that Jews still use the Torah today?
@Uninteresting This is an argument about whether or not the bible/new testament is jewish.
@Chaiske And how is the torah related to anything?
The bible isn't the New Testament, though.
I know.
And how is the bible related to it?
It states the history of the Jewish people, their covenant with God, and the law entailed in that covenant.
@Deleted User the old testament is jewish, the new testament is christian
not a hard concept
The Torah is a part of the Bible.
@Uninteresting Feel like proving it?
the old testament has almost nothing on jesus christ
@Chaiske How so?
@Deleted User what kind of proof do you want?
@Uninteresting [X] Doubt
The first books of the Old Testament, Genesis through Deuteronomy, make up the Torah, which is the central Jewish scripture.
@Uninteresting Anything that proves your point.
@Chaiske You got anything to prove that?
dude youre being ignorant on purpose, you wanna get spoonfed info instead of actually doing research
@Uninteresting And you're dodging actually proving it in favor of accusing me of being ignorant.
The Torah and the Bible
The Torah, Prophets (Neviāim) and the Writings (Ketuvim) collectively make up The Hebrew Bible (what Christians refer to as the Old Testament). The Bible is often referred to by the Hebrew acronym TaNaKh (usually spelled Tanakh, or Tanach )
@Deleted User alrighty then
disproving baseless claims
here we go bois
