Removed sentence

I removed the final sentence of the article ("The Torah has always consisted of only the first five books of the Hebrew Bible.[citation needed]") as it was phrased as a factual assertion despite the fact that the concept of Hexateuch is here presented as an alternative interpretation. The preceding sentence ("...the majority of traditional scholars follow the older rabbinic tradition, as it was expressed by the compilers of the Jewish Encyclopedia a century ago, that the Pentateuch is a complete work in itself.[citation needed]) already covers the argument, making the cut sentence redundant. --Khajidha (talk) 13:40, 3 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
