Are Pages static or can they be used to write categorial posts
-
I thought you could build pages and then the post you edit in that page would put that content onto the page. But that appears not to be the case. Can anyone advise on this?

You have only one dynamically changing page for posts. You cannot post to a page.
Pages are static, they don’t change, they don’t have time or date stamps, you cannot apply tags or categories to them.
Your home page (front page, blog page) changes each time you add a post. Posts have date and time stamps, and you can organize them with categories.
When you assign a category to a post, then that post can be found with a link to that category. All posts assigned that category will be found with a link to that category.
Because you can link to the list of posts assigned to a category you can also put this link (and links to other categories) into a custom navigation menu.
This way, while you are still posting to only one page, your readers can easily find posts you have made on a specific category (topic).
