The Torah, also known as The Books of Moses, consists of the first 5 books of the Bible: Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy.  These scriptures contain the foundational concepts in both Judaism and Christianity and, when studied along with other passages of scripture in the New and Old Testaments, we begin to understand how to better walk out our lives with Yahweh (God) at the center.

At Beit Lechem Ministries we follow a traditional schedule of reading through the Torah and studying its concepts each year. Each weekly portion of the Torah has a Hebrew name (also translated into English), and we provide a study guide to help draw out the deeper meanings behind the readings.

For those wanting to dive deeper into their understanding of scripture and of God, our study guides also cover the weekly Haftarah portion of the books of the major and minor prophets.
