From Wikipedia

The Hebrew Bible, Jewish Bible, or Tanakh, also known in Hebrew as Miqra, is the canonical collection of Hebrew scriptures, comprising the Torah, the Nevi'im, and the Ketuvim. Different branches of Judaism and Samaritanism have maintained different versions of the canon, including the 3rd-century BCE Septuagint text used in Second Temple Judaism, the Syriac Peshitta, the Samaritan Pentateuch, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and most recently the 10th-century medieval Masoretic Text compiled by the Masoretes, currently used in Rabbinic Judaism.

In this study

The Hebrew Bible in its Jewish arrangement of Torah, Nevi'im and Ketuvim. Kabbalists read its Hebrew closely: a root, a vowel or a divine name may open the verse toward a sefirah. The English therefore stands beside the Hebrew, never in its place.

Kabbalah does not present itself as a new revelation but as the inner sense of this one. A sefirotic claim without a verse behind it is, in its own terms, unfinished.
