Correct answer: B. Judaism and Christianity are Abrahamic religions, believing that God showed himself to Abraham.

The ancient Hebrew Bible began with the "Torah," that is, "The Law," which was given through the leader of Israel, Moses. The five books attributed to Moses, referred to collectively as "The Torah," are Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. In the book of Genesis, the account of Abraham is given, and subsequent books detail the history of the people of Israel, Abraham's descendants. The "Torah" or "Law" is only a portion of the Hebrew Bible, which also included the Prophets and the Writings. That whole collection of books that made up the Hebrew Bible are considered the "Old Testament" by Christians in their Bible.
