Thank you, Goldstategop. Great post.

Would you please delineate which books of the Hebrew Bible are correctly referred to as “The Torah”? And how do we refer to the other books? Are they the “Mishneh Torah?”

I'm not Jewish, but here are some sources of answers. See "Mishneh Torah (Review of the Torah)" under the following,...

The Ramba'm – Rabbi Moshe ben Maimon (Maimonides) 1135 – 1204 http://members.aol.com/LazerA/rambam.html

...and most other questions can be answered here.

Oh...and the first five books are the Torah. The whole Bible (24 books) is called the “Tanach” (or often, “Tanakh,” phonetic spellings can vary). The whole Bible is sometimes called the “Torah.”
