Pentateuch, also called the Torah, are the first five books of the Hebrew and Christian Scriptures.
Genesis is the first book, Exodus the second, Leviticusthe third, Numbers the forth, and Deuteronomy the fifth book.
These five books were written by Moses, who was educated in Egypt, raised in Pharaohs house and who brought the children of Israel out of bondage in Egypt to the land promised to their forefather Abraham. The land we now call Israel.
Leviticus gives us the Law that Moses received from God, and Numbers gives us a lot of gemological information of the Israelites that came out of Egypt and went into the Promised Land.

What are the differences between the term Torah and Pentateuch?
The words Torah and Pentateuch(from Greek for "five scrolls") both originally referred to the first five books of Moses, or the WRITTEN Law, consisting of Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy.However, at times, the term "Torah" is used loosely to refer to the Jewish Bible as a whole, as well as to the oral law and the Talmud. Orthodox Jews believe not only that God gave the written law, but also specific explanations of how to carry out that Law, and that these were to be passed on by word of mouth ('oral law'). The Talmud is the written summary of that oral law, with later commentaries and explanations, compiled by rabbis from the second century C.E. into the fifth century.

How does Deuteronomy serve as a bridge between the Pentateuch and the historical books?
A:We only need to look at what biblical scholars regard as the history of the Pentateuch and the biblical Books of History to understand the position that the Book of Deuteronomy has in regard to both groups of books. We all know that the Book of Deuteronomy is one of the five books that form the Pentateuch. In fact the name Deuteronomy means 'Second Law", a reference to laws described here and elsewhere in the Pentateuch. Scholars have also established that the author of Deuteronomy also wote the group of books known as the Deuteronomic History - Joshua, Judges, 1 Samuel, 2 Samuel, 1 Kings and 2 Kings. Although traditionally regarded as having been written over a period of many centuries by different authors in different times and even different cultures, they actually form a well-integrated set of works that are, in large part, by the same hand. This is the same hand that also wrote the Book of Deuteronomy, making it a bridge between the stories of the Pentateuch and those of the History.Although Deuteronomy is traditionally regarded as having been written well before the books of history, Deuteronomy 34:10 tells us that this book was actually written long after the establishment of the nation of Israel, when it says, "And there arose not a prophet since in Israel like unto Moses ..." The books of history follow in the order of the chronology they relate.
