Upon further thought...
The second one doesn't work, because the 6th item on the list is
"veChayim". As a list of adjectives for Torah, it would be a repeat of #1
"A Torah of life, and of love of kindness... and of life and of peace"?
But if these are nouns, then item 1 is "Toras Chayim" whereas item 6 is
"Chayim" itself.
GCT!
