Yes, it is not only the Textus Receptus but the authoritative text for
observant Jews. I do not say that it is the text believed to be that
handed down to Moses, since the Jewish tradition generally hold that the
text became corrupted. However, tradition hold that the text that
eventually was established is authoritative (even though it may be
'flawed') because it was up to humans to establish it in lack of any other
means to establish the text received by Moses. Of course some observant
Jews still hold that this text is the text that Moses received.

Shavua tov,
