520    The Hebrew Bible, known to Jews as the Tanakh and to 
       Christians as the Old Testament, is the basis for the 
       West's tradition of monotheism, as well as our 
       civilization's ethics and mores. In this course delivered 
       by Professor Lawrence H. Schiffman, listeners will engage 
       in a discussion on how that collection came into being and
       how it was passed down and interpreted throughout the 
       ages. By the conclusion of the discussion, you'll see how 
       this tradition developed into the basis of Judaism and 
       Christianity and how it continues to mold our society and 
       culture today. The Jewish Bible was collected in ancient 
       Israel over a long period of time. The first books of the 
       Bible are the Five Books of Moses, in Hebrew, the Torah, 
       or by its Greek name, the Pentateuch, meaning "five 
       books." For the Hebrew Scriptures, the Biblical canon was 
       divided into three parts, Torah, Nevi'im, and Ketuvim. 
       Christians have a completely different term for this 
       Jewish canon that constitutes about one half of the 
       Christian Bible. Because Christians have an additional set
       of texts, namely, the Gospels and the Epistles, Christians
       refer to the earlier material as the Old Testament in 
       contradistinction to the New Testament. This 
       intellectually satisfying course examines the complex 
       issues of the historicity of the biblical account as well 
       as the deep theological and religious ideas that the Bible
       teaches. We will sample approaches both traditional and 
       modern, making use of the works of a broad sampling of 
       scholars - ancient, medieval, and modern - to understand 
       the message of the Hebrew Scriptures and the stories they 
       told. Archaeology and the perspectives gained from our 
       knowledge of the Ancient Near East will be at the 
       forefront, allowing us to approach the Bible with the help
       of the manifold tools of modern research while retaining 
       respect for the Bible and its ancient message.
