The Jewish version of their teachings.
Not really, Christians use a text based on the Torah that was modified to support the teachings of Christianity.
Christian use the Bible.
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.
A:Yes. Most Christians believe this, although those who have studied the Bible are less likely to do so.
Christians show respect to the Torah by recognizing its foundational role in the Bible, viewing it as part of God's revelation. Many Christians study the Torah during Bible readings, acknowledging its teachings and historical significance. Additionally, some Christian denominations celebrate Jewish holidays and traditions, honoring their shared roots and promoting interfaith understanding.
Because it's not their holy book like the bible is
A way to interpret and understand the Torah
The Torah is the five books that God gave to Moses. The Torah is considered to be the word of God by Jews. Christians follow the Old Testament which is a variation of the Torah with some mistranslations. To Jews there is nothing old about it, it is the eternal word of God and there is no 'New' Testament.
This is know as the Bible, which includes the Hebrew Torah and letters writen by the apostles.
Christians believe that Jesus is the Messiah and that he died to save us from our sins. Jews are still waiting for the Messiah. Christians try not to sin because they love God and are thankful; they cannot earn salvation - it's just a gift. Jews try to be saved by following the law outlined in the Torah. That's the basic difference as I understand it; of course there are other differences.
