Are the first five books in the written Jewish religion (Torah) the same written text as the first five books (Pentateuch) in the Catholic old testament. I have been told the Catholic church made changes to the original written Jewish text in the Torah.
 
Yes, the first five books of the Bible (called the Torah or Pentateuch) are the same for Catholics, Protestants, and Judaism.

There are perhaps some differences in how chapters and verses are enumerated but the texts themselves would be the same.
