"Sfasu" is a Hebrew term referring to the Torah, which is considered sacred literature for Jews. Specifically, it refers to the first 1456 chapters of the Tanakh or Old Testament. The Hebrew word "sfasu" also appears in the Bible, especially in the Book of Kings (Ch. 9:2), where it occurs within the words of Moses to God: "And Moses said to the Lord, 'I am going up to the mountain to take a portion of this mountain.'" In the Tanakh and other Hebrew scriptures, sfasu is often used metaphorically in its spiritual sense. It refers to a spiritual life and a connection to God.
