  • It depends on the "type" of Judaism:
  • * For Karaite Jews it is the Tanakh (תנ"ך) which includes the (masoretic-version) of the Torah.
  • * For Rabbanite Jews it is not just one book but practically Talmud (תלמוד), Mishnah (משנה), Halakah literature (הלכה). Musar literature (מוסר), Kabbalah literature (קבלה) and also the Tanakh which includes the (masoretic-version) of the Torah but much as folklore/something to deeply interpret then to be understood literally.

  • * These types of Judaism are just two of the several "byproducts" of _Second Temple Judaism_, in which only the Tanakh-standalone-books and Mishnah-oral-traditions existed (until both where comprised into two single books "Tanakh" and "Mishnah", sometimes after the destruction of the second temple).
