Torah Scrolls

The Torah the first part of the Tanakh 

The root of the word, Torah is <YRH> [ ]means to teach or guide. Torah
has several meanings the law" or "doctrine, or the parchment scroll read in the
synagogue. A Torah scroll turns a room into a sanctuary. The Torah is the
cornerstone of Jewish religion and law. The scrolls are considered the most holy
of Jewish religious objects. Every synagogue maintains several scrolls, each of
which are covered and protected by a covering of rich fabric, mantel, in the
Ashkenazi tradition or in a box in the Sephardi tradition. They are decorated with
silver ornaments on the front and top.
The term Torah also is used to refer to the entire corpus of Jewish literature.
The Bible is called the written law, , and the the commentaries, the
legends of the Aggadah, the Mishnah, the Talmud and all the legal works are call
the oral law, . The commentaries range from the ancient to the
most modern or contemporary.

Torah Scrolls 2

A Sefer Torah can only be written by a trained Sofer (Scribe). There are 304,805
letters in a Sefer Torah. If one letter is extra or missing it renders the Torah
invalid.
To a Jewish community a Torah is more than a scroll; it is the story of a
people. In the Mishnah it is written, The World stands on three things on the
Torah, on the service of G
- d, and upon acts of loving
- kindness. The Torah, our
story, is part of our community and essential to a Jewish life. Up until now, our
Jewish community had our peoples story only in memory.

The Talmud
[The Talmud is the] body of Jewish civil and religious law, including
commentaries on the Torah, or Pentateuch. The Talmud consists of a codification
of laws, called the Mishnah, and a commentary on the Mishnah, called the
Gemara. The material in the Talmud that concerns decisions by scholars on
disputed legal questions is known as the Halakah; the legends, anecdotes, and
sayings in the Talmud that are used to illustrate the traditional law are known as
Haggada [sic., i.e. Aggada].
Two compilations of the Talmud exist: the Palestinian Talmud, sometimes called
the Jerusalem Talmud, and the Babylonian Talmud. Both compilations contain
the same Mishnah, but each has its own Gemara. The contents of the Palestinian
Talmud were written by Palestinian scholars between the 3rd century AD and the
beginning of the 5th century; those of the Babylonian Talmud, by scholars who
wrote between the 3rd century and the beginning of the 6th century. The
Babylonian Talmud became authoritative because the rabbinic academies of
Babylonia survived those in Palestine by many centuries.
The Talmud itself, the works of talmudic scholarship, and the commentaries
concerning it constitute the greatest contributions to rabbinical literature in the
history of Judaism. One of the most important of the works of scholarship is the
Mishneh Torah (Repetition of the Torah, c. 1180) by the Spanish rabbi,
philosopher, and physician Maimonides; it is an abstract of all the rabbinical legal
literature in existence at his time. The most widely known commentaries are
those on the Babylonian Talmud by the French rabbi Rashi and by certain
scholars known as tosaphists, who lived in France and Germany between the
12th and 14th centuries and included some of Rashi's grandsons.
The Babylonian Talmud and the Palestinian Talmud were first printed in 1520

Teshuvot ha-Rambam (Responsa)

Maimonides responded frequently to queries from near and far on halakhic
issues. Most responsa were written in Judeo
- Arabic and some in Hebrew. The
length of the responsum was suited to the level of the questioners knowledge.
He would attach proof from the Talmud for learned scholars and would
sometimes engage in discussions of halakha with them. For the less educated,
he would respond in a succinct manner and simply present his decision. Dozens
of his responsa were published in Hebrew in various editions, the first in
Constantinople , ca.1510. Up to the present, more than five hundred of his
responsa are known and published, some of which are extant in the Cairo
Geniza, some in his own hand.

Mishnah
The Mishnah is the body of oral law that is postBiblical until about the 2nd century C.E. The word
refers to both the entire work and a single
statement. To learn a mishnah means to learn
one statement. The Mishnah is divided into 6
orders [sidarot]. Each order is divided into
tracktates [ mesekhtot] then chapters
[ perakim] References to the Mishnah need
tracktate , chapter, and mishnah number.
Ex. Avot 4:5 refers to the 5th mishnah in chapter 4
of tracktate Avot.
45

45

Mishnah 2
Mishnah may also refer to statements made
by the rabbis of the post-Biblical era and
works such as Mishnayot Gedolot.
Yehudah ha-Nasi (known as Rabbi),2nd
century C.E., was the editor and redactor of
the Mishnah.

Talmud

The root of the word lamad means to learn.

The Gemara is an explanation and expansion of
the oral tradition of the Mishnah. The Talmud is
divided into the same orders and tractates as the
Mishnah. However there are several tractates of
the Mishnah that do not have Gemara sections.
The Talmudic period was from about 200 600
C.E. There are two talmuds Yerushalmi (in
English Jerusalem) and Bavli (Babylonian)
48

"Ethics, copyright laws, and courtesy to readers require
authors to identify the sources of direct quotations and of
any facts or opinions not generally known or easily
checked."-- Chicago Manual of Style, 15th edition
(Chicago: Chicago Univ. Press), p. 594
Writers include citations to give evidence, precedence, basis,
background and credit to the sources used to create the work and
document the arguments. Citations provide evidence and credibility to
the work by demonstrating that the author sought and considered other
resources. Citing sources is standard practice in written, oral, and
electronic works. Citations provide a trail for the reader to follow the
research and judge the writer contribution to the field. Librarians are
the experts in the interpretation of bibliographic citations and how to
help readers find the original sources.

Citing a Source
When citing a source in a book one can
depend on a standard edition. Even if a
book is reprinted or revised, a citation will
point the reader to the source.
This principle does not always work with
primary Jewish sources because edition
control is difficult. For some rabbinic
books, there is no standard edition or easy
way of referring to a page or chapter.
67

67

Citing the Bible

Cite by book and verse for text or translation.
Ex. Leviticus 19:16, Genesis 4:20.
Cite a particular edition, translation, or
commentary by the page number.
If citing Rashi or other commentary and you
dont have a standard edition, use the Biblical
verse associated with the commentary. For
example Rashis commentary on Leviticus
16:16.
68

68

Citing the Mishnah

Use the mesekhta (tractate) chapter then
mishna number.
For example Berakhot 5:4 means chapter 5,
mishnah 4 of Berakhot.

69

69

Citing the Talmud 1

There are two talmuds, Babylonian (in Hebrew Talmud
Bavli ) and Jerusalem (in Hebrew ) ,
also called Palestinian Talmud or the Talmud of Jerusalem.
Since the Babylonian Talmud is more complete and more
often studied, references to the Talmud are assumed to be
from the Babylonian unless the Jerusalem Talmud is
explicitly mentioned.
Most contemporary Talmud editions use the page layout
called the Vilna Shas, named after the city where it was
first printed in this format. The Talmud text is in big print in
the middle with commentaries on the left right and bottom.

Citing the Talmud 2

Daf is the Hebrew word for what librarians call a leaf
and most people call a page. One daf includes a side 1
and side 2 (recto and verso in library lingo, amud in
Hebrew.) Daf Yomi is the study program to learn one full
page per day.
Refer to leaves and the recto or verso by a or b. In
Hebrew this means page aleph or bet. For example:
Berakhot 23a means the recto or first page of leaf 23 in
mesekhet Berakhot. All books of the Talmud start with
leaf numbered 2. This shows we are never beginners in
our study. Sometimes T.B. is used for Babylonian
Talmud and T.Y. for the Jerusalem Talmud. Without a
designator, the Babylonian Talmud is assumed.
73

73

Citing the Talmud 3

If citing a standard translation such as
Soncino or ArtScroll use volume name,
the page of the volume and the standard
Talmud page.
If citing a commentary such as Rashi or
Tosafot use the standard Talmud page
where you found it.

Citing the Tosephta 1

The word Tosephta means addition or supplement., The work is
printed in the same volume as the Talmud is supplements. It is
arranged chapters and mishnayot the same as the Mishnahm, but
differs from the Mishnah in the subject arrangement and in the
division of the Perakim (chapters).
There are in all sixty Masekhtot and 452 Perakim. The Tosephta
contains mainly the remnants of the earlier compilations of the
Halacha made by R. Akiba, R. Meir, R. Nehemia, and others not
adopted in the Mishna, and, besides additions made after R. Jehuda
Hanasi's death by his disciples, R. Chiya, R. Oshaya, Bar Kappara
and others. The Toesephta also contains many sayings and
decisions of later Amoraim of the Babylonian and Palestinian
schools. In its present shape it belongs to the fifth or sixth century."
Cite the Tosephta by Meskhta, chapter and mishnah. Ex. Tosephta

Feinstein, Moshe. Iggerot Moshe, Yoreh De'ah II:174(3).
Interpretation: Name in library catalogs: Feinstein, Moses, 18921986. Title on the book ... :
/ ... . Sefer Igrot Mosheh : ... le-hashiv
la-shoalim oti mi-talmidai e-averai ...
The word, sefer means book. When sefer is the first word of a
book title it is usually ignored as it is a very common, sort of
comparable to the. However, since the word sefer may be
significant, the decision to include it in cataloging is a catalogers
decision. Since the computer program cant make that decision, the
library catalog will include it when not properly coded for skipping.
Note in this citation the systematic Romanization according to
AACR/LC differs from this authors citation. Yoreh Deah is a
section of the book. II is part 2 of that section. 174 (3) means
section 174 law 3.

Interpretation
The authors name in library catalogs is: Maimonides, Moses, 11351204. The title of the work is: Mishneh Torah which may also be
spelled Mishnah Torah. This work is divided into volumes based on
the names of the orders of the Mishnah. This citation is from the
chapter titled: Laws of Murder and Guarding Ones Life.[In Hebrew
: ] Philip Birnbaums translation uses the title:
Homicide and life preservation. The citation is from chapter 2 and
is second law.
Birnbaums translation is: If a man hired a murderer to kill
somebody, or sent servant to kill him he deserves to die by an act
of God, but is not executed by the court.
