If the Bible is the cornerstone of Judaism, then the Talmud is the central pillar soaring up from the foundations and supporting the entire spiritual edifice. In many ways, the Talmud is the most important book in Jewish culture, the backbone of creativity and of national life. No other work has had a comparable influence on the theory and practice of Jewish life, shaping spiritual content and serving as a guide to conduct. Over the centuries, hostile nations have banned Talmudic study because it was abundantly clear that a Jewish society that ceased to study this work had no real hope of survival. Join Rabbi Rosenblum for an in-depth introduction to the majestic intellectual heights of Talmud study.
