Explain to me what this "old testament" means

The Old Testament refers to the book Old Testament.

The Old Testament was originally Tana, the main Jewish scripture. Some scholars believe that it was written from the prison period of Babylon to the first century BC, during which it was written for about 240 years, and was later fully accepted by Christianity as the first part of the Bible.

Many contents of the Islamic Koran are the same. The Old Testament recognized by different Christians is slightly different, and the Catholic version recognizes 46 volumes; The orthodox version recognizes 50 volumes; The Protestant version is 39 volumes.

The Old Testament Bible is usually divided into four parts: the Five Books of Moses (also known as Torah), the history book, the book of poetry wisdom and the book of prophets. The Old Testament was written and compiled before the birth of Jesus. According to Christian doctrine, it is the same as the New Testament written after the birth of Jesus.

Extended data

Hebrew and Elamite are two languages used in the Old Testament and two branches of Semitic language family. Noah's son was named "Flash", which is the etymology of the word "Flash".

The original semu people may have come from Arabia. Numerous immigrants migrated to Mesopotamia, Syria, Palestine and parts of Africa, and gradually developed different but related languages. The earliest Hebrew manuscripts were undoubtedly written in Phoenician and preserved in the inscriptions of Phoenicia and Moab. In addition, among the Dead Sea scrolls, several volumes are written in ancient Chinese characters.

The ancient versions of the Old Testament include the Five Classics of Samaria, Taum of Elam, and seventy versions, as well as the ancient Syrian version, the ancient Latin version, the Arminia version and the Arabic version.
