The Pentateuch

The Pentateuch consists of the first five books of the Bible—Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. These texts lay the foundation for Jewish and Christian traditions, detailing creation, early human history, the origins of Israel as a nation, and God's laws and covenant with His people. They include stories, moral codes, laws, and religious instructions that guide faith and practice. As a unified narrative, the Pentateuch explores themes of divine relationship, obedience, and promise, serving as the core theological and historical introduction to the Bible.
