Torah Studies

Torah Studies refer to the examination and interpretation of the Torah, which is the central reference of the religious Judaic tradition, encompassing the first five books of the Hebrew Bible. This field includes exploring its texts, laws, ethical teachings, narratives, and commentaries by various scholars throughout history. Torah Studies involve both traditional methods of analysis, including rabbinic commentary, and modern scholarly approaches, such as historical and literary criticism. The objective is to understand the texts’ meanings, relevance, and application in contemporary life, fostering spiritual growth and ethical living within the Jewish community and beyond.
