Which term is defined as 'Law or instruction'?

• A. Mitzv'ot
• B. Catholic
• C. Torah
• D. Passover

Answer: (C)

The idea here is identifying a term that means “Law or instruction” in a Jewish context. The term that best fits is Torah. Torah refers to the foundational body of divine instruction given to the people, traditionally seen as the first five books of Moses. It carries the sense of teaching and guidance, not just a legal code, though it does contain many laws. The commandments and specific rules within it are called mitzvot, which are individual laws derived from the Torah rather than the overarching term for law or instruction itself. The other options don’t fit this definition: Catholic denotes a Christian denomination, and Passover is a festival commemorating the Exodus.
