Torah: |
There are a number of different names that are commonly used to designate the first five books of the Old Testament. They are sometimes called the Pentateuch. This name comes from two Greek words that mean the "five volumes” or “five scrolls." These five books (Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy) are also called the Law. The Hebrew name for them is the Torah, the Hebrew word for "law." They are also called The Law of Moses or The Five Books of Moses.
|
Bereishit ("In the Beginning") / Genesis (Origins):
means "beginning." The book tells of the beginning of many things: the universe, man, sin, promise of Saviour languages, nations, the Hebrew people (Jews), etc. Shemot ("names") / Exodus (The Road Out): Tells of how the family of Jacob grew and then was enslaved in Egypt. The baby Moses, born of Israelites but adopted by Pharaoh, becomes God’s prophet who, after bringing 10 plagues down upon Egypt, leads the Israelites through the Red Sea to freedom and to the revelation at Mt. Sinai. Vayikra ("And God Called") / Leviticus (Laws): Deals mostly with laws of Israelite sacrificial worship. Related rules include the basis for Jewish dietary laws (kashrut) and issues of purity and impurity. Bamidbar ("In the Wilderness") / Numbers (The Census): Begins with a census of the Israelites and the tribe of Levi. A group of Israelites spy out the land of Canaan; their discouraging report sends them back into the desert for 38 years more, during which the Israelites rebel against the authority of Moses and his brother Aaron. Devarim ("Words") / Deuteronomy (Second Law): Is Moses' final message to the people of Israel before they cross over the Jordan River into Israel. Moses reminds the people of how God has saved the people from Egypt and reminds them of the covenant between Israel and God |
