Is a Torah Jew an Orthodox Jew?
It depends on how the term is meant. "Torah Jews" can mean more than one thing. If the definition is: Those who live the laws of the Torah (which is the way the phrase "Torah Jews" is usually used), then it is understandably common to reserve that description for observant Jews. It is indeed customary today to call observant Jews "Torah Jews"; so the answer to the question is Yes. The word "Orthodox" is seen by many Torah Jews to be an exonym, i.e. a term applied to them by non-Orthodox, whereas they prefer the term "Torah Jews". If the definition is: Who is Jewish according to the Torah, then Torah Jews would include non-observant Jews, because they don't cease being Jewish. All Jews, regardless of levels of observance are "Torah Jews" since their Jewishness is derived from the Torah's mandates.
What was education like in a jewish family?
Education has always been paramount to Jews. The Torah commands us to learn and teach, and especially to teach our own children. In Talmud Torah, in Yeshiva, and also when at home, children are taught Torah and Torah-subjects. Illiteracy has always been extremely low among Jews, even in eras when the surrounding nations were largely illiterate. Torah-learning is intensive, both requiring as well as inculcating high intelligence. As soon as babies begin to understand the spoken word, Jewish parents start accustoming them to verses of Torah and whichever laws and customs they can comprehend. Excellence in Torah is always encouraged and rewarded.
