The Scripture of the Old Testament they call [Greek or Hebrew], and divide it into three § 2 parts: (1.) [Greek or Hebrew], the Law: (2.) [Greek or Hebrew], the Prophets: (3.) [Greek or Hebrew], the Writings, by Divine Inspiration, which are usually called the Hagiographa, or Holy Writings. And this distribution of the Books of the Old Testament is in general intimated by our Saviour, Luke 24.24. [Greek or Hebrew]. All things written in the Law, the Prophets, and the Psalms; under which last head, all the Poetical Books of the Scripture are contained. Thus Rabbi Bechai in Cad Hackemach, [Greek or Hebrew]; the Law, (so sometimes they call the whole Volume) is divided into three parts, the Law, the Prophets, and the Holy Writings. All comprised generally under the Name of the Law; for so they say in Midrash Tehillim. Psalm 78. v. 1. [Greek or Hebrew], the Psalms are the Law, and the Prophets are the Law; that is the whole Scripture.
