Phil, sorry, that’s just not true. Torah is adus, a testament to what transpired. Torah sheb”p is in torah shebichs”v, as the gaon would learn from a sefer torah and see the entire torah sheba”p, but in the level that we learn it, there’s not one facet of yiddishkeit that you’re going to understand just by knowing tanach. And that’s why missionaries and frei people do just fine in tanach contests while they know nothin of judaism
