Publisher Description
What is the Talmud?
What's in it? What topics does it cover?
Why do so many Jews continue to study it?
Why do anti-Semites like to attack it?
What does the Talmud say about airplanes????
Since its completion around 500 CE, the Talmud has traveled with Jews wherever we have wandered in the Diaspora. It is like a suitcase of Jewish wisdom—a didactic mixture of law and lore. Yet modernity has brought divergent views on how to frame this uniquely Jewish text.
This book will give you a clear understanding of what the Talmud is, what it does, and why it matters.
