Definition

  • Talmud, from the Hebrew root 1-m-d, “to learn, to study,” refers to two very large compilations produced by Galilean and Babylonian rabbis in the late fourth and early sixth centuries CE, respectively. They are encyclopedic in size and scope but not in arrangement. [Source: Encyclopedia of Law & Society: American and Global Perspectives; Talmudic Law]
