Torah

The Torah is the central reference of the religious Judaic tradition, consisting of the first five books of the Hebrew Bible: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. It presents the foundational narratives, laws, and teachings of Judaism, including the covenant between God and the Israelites. The Torah is not only a religious text but also a cultural and ethical guide for Jewish life. It is read and studied extensively in Jewish communities, forming the basis for Jewish law (Halacha) and spiritual practice, and is considered sacred by Jews around the world.
