Analytical Templates of the Bavli

By Jacob Neusner

In the Mishnah (ca. 200 C.E.), the Tosefta (ca. 300 C.E.), and the commentaries that joined them-the Yerushalmi, the Talmud of the Land of Israel (ca. 400) and the Bavli, and the Talmud of Babylonia (ca. 600)-the law of Judaism is outlined topic by topic. The exposition of these topics, however, is shaped in part by a generic analytical program. In this project, author Jacob Neusner identifies the occurrences of the four intellectual templates and shows, in complete detail, where and how the same problems recur time and again.
