High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Nevi'im (Hebrew: ??????????, "Prophets") is the second of the three major sections in the Hebrew Bible, the Tanakh. It falls between the Torah and Ketuvim (writings). Nevi'im is traditionally divided into two parts: Former Prophets or Nevi'im Rishonim [?????? ???????], which contains the narrative books of Joshua through Kings. Latter Prophets or Nevi'im Aharonim [?????? ???????], which mostly contains prophecies in the form of biblical poetry. In the Jewish tradition, Samuel and Kings are each counted as one book. In addition, twelve relatively short prophetic books are counted as one in a single collection called Trei Asar or "The Twelve Minor Prophets". The Jewish tradition thus counts a total of eight books in Nevi'im out of a total of 24 books in the entire Tanakh. In the Jewish liturgy, selections from the books of Nevi'im known as the Haftarah are read publicly in the synagogue after the reading of the Torah on each Sabbath, as well as on Jewish festivals and fast days.
