Was the Torah written by Moses?

According to Rabbinic Judaism it was. But, if we are going to be absolutely honest with ourselves — it was not — at least not all of it.

Most of the first five books of the Jewish Bible were oral stories pieced together over a period of several centuries. These stories were compiled and collated beginning with and during the Babylonian Exile in the 6th Century BCE with most gathered together into a full canonized text beginning in the Hasmonean period circa 200 BCE with the canonized three sections of the entire Jewish Bible (Tanakh — Torah-Prophets-Writings) finally fixed by what was left of the Rabbinic Sanhedrin sometime in the late Second Century CE.
