Description
Excerpt from The Pentateuch According to the Talmud: Genesis; With a Talmudical Commentary
Tm: question, What is the Talmud? Has, of late years, been brought prominently before the public, both in England and on the Continent; and it is no exaggeration to say, that at no other time have so many attempts been made to open up its arcane. To the world at large, and to bring them within the cognisance of everybody, at all able and willing to form a judgment upon the merits of this huge depository of Jewish tradition. Stimulated by the avidity with which their readers have devoured everything which professed to throw light upon this subject, periodicals of a high literary standard have devoted their pages to it in order to supply what seemed a great desideratum. The problem, however, is still unsolved, and the question, What is the Talmud? Remains precisely where it was before the late Emanuel Deutsch started it in the Quarterly Review.
