These words are words spoken in reference to scripture and the Bible.
The OT was not originally written in Hebrew - only from the time of David and onward. There was no Hebrew until about 900BCE. Hebrew evolved from proto-canaanite/akkadian as did Arabic, Aramaic, Greek, etc. In fact, the OT contains loan words from Aramaic, Greek, Latin, Egyptian, Persian, Chaldean. The "original" texts were written on scrolls, the 10 Commandments on stone tablets. There were no books back then
You are confusing yourself. The Jews use the Masorectic Mss, which the OT is translated from. The NT was codified from what was written, copied, and sent all over the Greek world, Arabia, and Africa by the writers of the NT. As early as the second century AD, the NT is quoted by various writers. The entire Bible, from Gen to Rev is the inspired words of God.
The word "TaNaKh" is a Talmudic concept, a division to schedule the one and two year reading cycles in Judaism. The Bible is one continuous written words of the Lord from Gen to Rev.
Once again, the information you are providing does not come from the Bible, but from outside sources. What are they?
TaNaKh is the Torah, the Neviim, and the Kethuvim. This is the Law, the Prophets, and the Writings.
When do you believe that the Talmud came to be?
You can verify this by looking in a TaNaKh as I have with mine.
The Mishna is called the Oral Torah. It was before the Talmud. With the Gemara, we have the Talmud. So the Talmud has the Mishna and the Gemara.
The word is used in the Psalms and elsewhere.
The way you are using it it is more than just the Talmud, but everything that is a part of Rabbinic Talmudic Judaism. When a person uses the word Torah, when a Jew uses the word, he means either the written Torah (Moses) or both the written Torah and the oral Torah. Seldom does a person mean only the oral Torah. But to say Torah doesn't necessarily mean the written Torah, for both the written Torah and the oral Torah are Torah. It is all the Torah. But this is not how I was using the term. I am a Jew, though a convert. And I have not studied all of the Mishna. I do know about it. I would like to study the Mishna before the Gemara. I have read either part of the Mishna or part of the Gemara before. I understand that this is the Talmud, but I forget if I understood I was reading Mishna, Gemara, or Talmud.
I believe you are challenging me about my knowledge of the Talmud. Rather, we ought to accept that the first five books are called the Torah, independent of the the Talmud and Rabbinic Judaism.
I understand the Ten Commandments to be the covenant God made with Israel. They are found in the written Torah different from that they were written on tablets of stone, but the same commandments. This is not the covenant in its entirety. These are not the only commandments given to Israel. The Torah has 613 commands or commandments. These have been counted. There are five books in the Torah. They are Bereshit, Shemot, Vayikra, Bamidbar, Devarim. These are Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy. The word Torah means Law. This is the Law or the Pentateuch. It is the Law, the Law of Moses, the Five Books of Moses. These are the first five books of the TaNaKh, the Hebrew Bible. They are the Jewish Bible. And they are the first five books of the Bible, even the Christian Bible.
What do you mean by other commandments? Do you have a for example? The Oral Torah can help a person to understand the Written Torah, and was not written down in opposition or in contradiction to the written Torah.
