[Avodah] When was the Torah given to Moshe? [was: Resh Lakish]

>>The question is only when he was taught the laws that are  in
the Torah.  IOW when Moshe came down from the Mountain he knew  either
a) all the 613 mitzvos, including that of writing a sefer  torah,
which isn't written until the end of Devarim; or b) only the  mitzvos
that are written in Sefer Shemos.  But either way, the text of  our
five chumashim was only dictated to him before his  death.<<

Thank you.
 
But we always speak of Matan Torah as having taken place on Har  Sinai -- as 
if Moshe was given the whole Torah on Har Sinai.  Anyway, the  idea that Moshe 
was taught the laws on Har Sinai -- not the entire text of the  Chumash -- 
does fit in with that.
