This in the early hours study deals with the favorable of the Bible. The Bible is on bad terms featuring in two sections: the Old Testament and the New Testament. The word "Testament" comes from a Hebrew word (by the way of the Greek New Testament) which basis "concurrence."
The name "Old Testament" reflects the Christian's belief that the answer of a new concurrence in Jeremiah 31:31-34 was finished in Christ.
The Jewish the public today protest their scripture Tanak. It is as well acclaimed as the Hebrew Bible. The word "Tanak" comes from an acronym completed up of the initial consonants of the three crass parts of the Hebrew Bible: Torah (Law), Nebiim (Prophets) and Kethubim (Writings).
