Judaism/Gemara

• Gemara

  • The rabbinic discussion of the Judaism/Mishnah, accumulated over centuries and recorded together with the Mishnah as the Judaism/Talmud.
  • The Gemara asks why a rabbi holds his position, which verse supports him, whether another Mishnah contradicts him, who the anonymous speaker is, and what unstated assumption would reconcile two statements. It keeps the dead ends, objections, hypothetical cases, minority positions and unresolved questions along with the conclusions.
