About Tanakh: Torah & Hebrew Bible
The complete Tanakh - the Jewish Bible - in Hebrew and English, to read, to listen to, and to understand. All 24 books of the Torah, Prophets and Writings in Hebrew with vowels (nikkud) and optional cantillation marks (trope), side by side with the classic JPS 1917 English translation. Press play and listen: every word lights up as it is read, and the reading continues on the Lock Screen. THE STORIES, AS THE SAGES TELL THEM 80 stories from Creation to the Return to Zion. Each one starts with the verses, then shows how Jewish tradition reads them - Talmud, Midrash, Rashi, Ramban and more - with every source cited and the full Talmud page one tap away, translated into English. ONE STORY, THREE TRADITIONS See where Judaism, Christianity and Islam meet and where they part: the same story as told in the Torah, the New Testament and the Quran, side by side, each in its own words. WHAT'S INSIDE • The full Hebrew Bible: Hebrew with nikkud and optional ta'amim, plus the JPS 1917 English • Read aloud with word-by-word highlighting, adjustable speed, sleep timer and continuous play to the next chapter • Lock Screen, Dynamic Island and Live Activity controls • Ancient map: every story where it happened, with biblical-era place names • Timeline: travel back from the Return to Zion to Creation, in traditional or academic chronology • Full Talmud pages in English, with the lines quoted in each story highlighted • Search across all 23,000 verses and every story • Bookmarks, reading progress and "continue where you left off" • A chapter a day and a story a day • Works fully offline.
