The most important example of Hebrew literature is the Hebrew Bible The books of the Hebrew Bible have been divided into three main selections: the Torah (laws); The Nevi-im- (Prophets); Ketuvim (Writings) Authorship of the bible is still debated.

Discuss what the difference is? How is the way that the Hebrew’s believe in their God similar and or different to the way the Greeks believed in their god?) The Bible contains many stories or parables in which writers present themes that can be interpreted as life lessons

The Jews of antiquity or the Hebrews originated as a nomadic tribe in Iraq somewhere around 2000 BC By 1600 BC they had arrived at the promised Land of Canaan (now known as Israel and Lebanon) After moving to Egypt to escape famine the Hebrews suffered centuries of enslavement by the Egyptians Hebrews documented their nation’s beginning and other details of their history within the work now called the Bible This is the Hebrew’s Creation Story As you read think about the similarities and differences between the Creation Stories from Greek mythology and the Hebrew’s beliefs
