A:The majority of Christians regard the Hebrew Bible, or Old Testament, as a substantially true record of history, its authors inspired by God. Probably most Christians still believe that Moses wrote the first five books, known to Jews as the Torah and to Christians as the Pentateuch. Some regard the stories of creation as allegories, but do not question their underlying truth. Few would willingly acknowledge significant contradictions or historical errors in the Old Testament, with some Christians believing that the entire Bible is inherently free of error.

Most Christians regard the Hebrew Bible as in some way preparing for the life and mission of Jesus, with many believing that it contains actual prophecies ofJesus.
