Not really, Christians use a text based on the Torah that was modified to support the teachings of Christianity.
A:Yes. Most Christians believe this, although those who have studied the Bible are less likely to do so.
It wasn't. Back during the early days of Christianity, the Torah & the Writings known as the Tanach were written down for 4 different Jewish sects: The Pharisee Torah; The Essen Torah, the Samaritan Torah, & I believe the Saducees Torah. The Torah & Tanach which the Christians used for the Old Testament came from the Essene Torah & Tanach, whereas, the ones that would ultimately become of use for mainline Judaism, ever after the dawn of Christianity, came from the Pharisaic Torah & Tanach.
The word "Bible" is from the Greek "Biblos", which means "Book" in English. The Latin word for "Book" is "Liber".Incidentally, this is where the word "Library" comes from.

Jews use the Torah, or Old Testament; Christians use the Torah and New Testament, and Muslims use the Torah, New Testament, and Koran.
The Torah is basically the first five books of the Bible, so Jesus hadn't shown up yet. The Torah contains many refernces to a Messiah, which Christians believe was Jesus, but Jews don't believe this.

We believe that Moses received the Torah from the top of Mt. Sinai.
The Jewish version of their teachings.
All the people who don't believe what you do are infidels (unbelievers) from your perspective.
