No. The Torah is the first five books of the Bible. Psalms is one of the Books of Poetry.
The Torah is the sacred text of Jews and Samaritans, although there are lots of small differences between the Jewish and Samaritan one, and one big difference about where the sacrifices are to be done. The Jewish tradition also recognizes the prophetic books (like Isaiah) and the writings (like Ruth) as part of The Bible. The Christians refer to the entire Jewish Bible as the Old Testament. To it, they add the Gospels and later writings that they call, collectively, the New Testament.
The five books of the Torah, which also appear in the Hebrew Bible, are Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy. These texts form the foundation of Jewish law, teachings, and history. In the Hebrew Bible, they are part of the larger collection known as the Tanakh, which includes the Torah, Prophets, and Writings. The Torah is specifically revered as the core of Jewish religious tradition.
The Jewish Bible is called the Tanach, this is an acronym representing the three parts of the Bible: Torah (Teachings), Nevi'im (Prophets), K'tuvim (Writings).The Christian Old Testament was based on the Tanach, however, it was altered to support the teachings of Christianity.Alternate AnswerRemember the Christian Bible builds upon the Jewish Scripture (the Old testament)but traditionally for Jews, the Torah is the first part of the Tanakh, the Hebrew Bible
Polite tradition is not to refer to stories found in the Bible as mythology. The story of Eve is found in the Book of Genesis and is part of Jewish religious tradition.
The Torah doesn't actually contain laws, it contains 'mitzvot'. The closest English translation of 'mitzvah' is 'guideline'. These mitzvot form the core guidelines for how Jews are supposed to live. Jewish law is called 'halacha' and is found in the Talmud, which is not a part of the Tanach (Jewish Bible).

No one knows for certain, but Jewish tradition holds that the Torah (the oldest part of the Bible) was written around 1300 BCE. Modern scholarship suggests that it was written much later.
This question has two possible answers. The reason is that the first five Hebrew books of the Bible are not refered to as the "gospel." Only the part of the Bible that gives the accounts of the minstry of Jesus is called the gospels. The first five books of the Bible was called the Pentateuch. That refers to the first five books of the "Old Testiment," or "Hebrew Scriptures" that were written by Moses in the Hebrew language. The part of the Bible that is normally referred to as the gospels, that is, the minstry of Jesus, are the first four books of the "New Testiment," or "Greek Scriptures." This is the books of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.
Jewish tradition states the Torah (the oldest part of the Bible) was first written around 1200 BCE. Modern Jewish scholarship suggests it was still an oral tradition until at least the time of King David (1000 BCE).
The Jewish writings that contain the history of the Israelites and the basic laws of their religion are called the Torah. It is the first part of the Hebrew Bible and is considered the most sacred text in Judaism. The Torah consists of the five books of Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy.
