Study of Torah
The "Study of Torah" refers to the examination and interpretation of the Torah, which is the central reference of the religious Judaic tradition. It consists of the first five books of the Hebrew Bible, also known as the Pentateuch. This study is fundamental to Jewish life and thought, providing ethical, legal, and spiritual guidance.
Torah study can take place in various settings, including synagogues, schools, and private homes. It often involves reading the text, discussing its meanings, and applying its teachings to daily life. Many Jewish communities emphasize the importance of lifelong learning and engagement with the Torah.
