Metro Police said the item was reported stolen from The Venetian last month.
They said a man told detectives that he had left his Torah inside of the convention room that had been converted into a synagogue.
Police said the Torah had been used in the convention room since June 8 and had remained in that location until it was reported stolen two days later.
Hotel video surveillance shows a man walking through the property pulling a suitcase on wheels, but police said Friday that they have not been able to identify the suspect yet.
