The aim of the Jewish Bible, which is called the Tanach, is to provide Jews with the instructions for living righteously. The Torah, which makes up the first of the three sections of the Tanach, was summed up by one of Judaism's greatest sages with the following:
That which is hateful to you, do not do to others. The rest is just commentary. Now go read the commentary.
