Hebrew bible Ruth can attempt in part, reading backwards (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tanach

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'hebrew bible' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.

'ruth can attempt in part reading backwards' is the wordplay.
'TANACH' is hidden backwards in amongst the letters.
However, I'm uncertain how this is indicated.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Another definition for tanach that I've seen is " Scripture".)
