ABOUT THE TALMUD
The Talmud (or Gemara) is the supreme source-book of all Jewish Law and tradition. More than just a legal text, it is also a wellspring of ethical principles, and ultimately a guidebook to life.
Its rigorous study has inspired masses of people throughout the ages. In every historical period and geographical location, students of the Talmud have devoted hours upon hours, weeks upon weeks, years upon years, to the study of its principles.
