We consider the concept of prime submodule defined by Raggi et al. . We find equivalent conditions for a module M progenerator in σ[M], with τ _M -Gabriel dimension, to have a one-to-one correspondence between the set of isomorphism classes of indecomposable τ-torsion free injective modules in σ[M] and the set of τ-pure submodules prime in M, where τ is a hereditary torsion theory in σ[M]. Also we give a relation between the concept of prime M-ideal given by Beachy and the concept of prime submodule in M. We obtain that if M is progenerator in σ[M], then these concepts are equivalent.
