Nevi'im

Redirected from Neviim

Nevi'im, Hebrew:נביאים (=Prophets) is the second of three sections of the Hebrew Bible or Tanach. This section is divided into Nevi'im Ri'shonim (Earlier Prophets: Joshua through Kings) and Nevi'im Acharonim (Latter Prophets: Isaiah through Malachi). The books of Samuel and Kings are often each counted as one book, as are the last twelve.
