Detailed explanation-1: -The Torah (/ˈtɔːrə, ˈtoʊrə/; Biblical Hebrew: Tōrā, “Instruction", “Teaching” or “Law") is the compilation of the first five books of the Hebrew Bible, namely the books of Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers and Deuteronomy. In that sense, Torah is the Pentateuch (/ˈpɛntətjuːk/) or the Five Books of Moses.
Detailed explanation-2: -The text of the Torah would have originally been written down on papyrus scrolls to be studied and discussed by scholars. It is only after the Babylonian Exile in 444 BCE as the Jews returned to Israel, that Ezra the scribe is recorded as having read aloud from the five books of Moses (Nehemiah 8).
Detailed explanation-3: -For thousands of years people believed that the five books of the Pentateuch were written by Moses. The Talmud even explicitly says so.
