The Torah-scroll is five books in one.

Genesis contains the Creation, the Flood, and the lives of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and their wives. Exodus contains the events surrounding the Exodus from Egypt, and the building of the Tabernacle. Leviticus contains laws of the Temple and ritual purity. Numbers contains events in the wilderness. Deuteronomy contains laws in preparation of entering the holy land.
