Torah Overview

Genesis (Beresheit) is the book dealing with beginnings and eventually its overarching theme is divine election. Exodus (Shemot) is the book whose principle theme is redemption - Israel's deliverance from Egypt (Mitzraim/world). Leviticus (Vayikra) continues to be focused upon the Mishkan (Tabernacle) and gives the commandments on how to worship YHVH in spirit - come into the inner court. Numbers (B'midbar) gives us instructions pertaining to our spiritual walk and warfare in the "wilderness" of life. Deuteronomy (D'varim) gives instructions to the younger generation in preparation to enter the Promised Land. ~Gateway to Freedom
