The Torah (/ˈtɔːrəˌˈtoʊrə/; Hebrew: תּוֹרָה, "instruction,teaching") is the central reference of the religious Judaictradition. It has a range of meanings. It can most specificallymean the first five books of the twenty-four books of the Tanakh(Pentateuch), and it usually includes the rabbinic commentaries(perushim). The term "Torah" means instruction and offers a way oflife for those who follow it; it can mean the continued narrativefrom Book of Genesis to the end of the Tanakh, and it can even meanthe totality of Jewish teaching, culture and practice. Common toall these meanings, Torah consists of the foundational narrative ofJewish peoplehood: their call into being by God, their trials andtribulations, and their covenant with their God, which involvesfollowing a way of life embodied in a set of moral and religiousobligations and civil laws (halakha).
In rabbinic literature the word "Torah" denotes both the five books(Hebrew: תורה שבכתב "Torah that is written") and the Oral Torah(תורה שבעל פה, "Torah that is spoken"). The Oral Torah consists ofinterpretations and amplifications which according to rabbinictradition have been handed down from generation to generation andare now embodied in the Talmud and Midrash. According to rabbinictradition, all of the teachings found in the Torah, both writtenand oral, were given by God through the prophet Moses, some atMount Sinai and others at the Tabernacle, and all the teachingswere written down by Moses, which resulted in the Torah we havetoday. According to the Midrash, the Torah was created prior to thecreation of the world, and was used as the blueprint forCreation.
The majority of Biblical scholars believe that the written bookswere a product of the Babylonian captivity (c. 600 BCE), based onearlier written and oral traditions, which could only have arisenfrom separate communities within ancient Israel, and that it wascompleted by the period of Achaemenid rule (c. 400 BCE). The 1979discovery of fragments of the Hebrew Bible (Priestly Blessing fromthe Book of Numbers) at Ketef Hinnom dating to the late 7th centuryBCE, and thus to before the Babylonian captivity, is the oldestevidence of elements of the Torah which were current before theBabylonian exile.
Traditionally, the words of the Torah are written on a scroll by ascribe (sofer) in Hebrew. A Torah portion is read publicly at leastonce every three days in the presence of a congregation. Readingthe Torah publicly is one of the bases for Jewish communallife.
The reason for reading of the Torah, is that the Torah consists ofsomething that was given to us by God to read. It was furthermoredesignated so that His holy light should be transmitted to usthrough such reading . . .. On certain special days, it is alsoappropriate that special portions be read, relating to the conceptsof those days. In this way, the special holy light of these days isstrengthened through the power of the Torah, which is the strongestpower that we have.
The Torah was given to us to read, to study, and to explore. Sothat we maximize our spiritual benefit from this reading, it wasordained that we read the Torah every week and on special days. Onthese special days, our spiritual benefit is increased: we receivenot only the holiness that comes from the reading of the Torah, butalso that from the holiday itself.
