Together the Mishnah and the Gemara constitute the Talmud, which is, next to the Bible, undoubtedly the most important literary work in the history of Judaism. The Mishnaic material selected and newly translated here by Rabbi Lipman is designed to present to serious readers some interesting and relevant passages with a straightforward, traditional commentary, which together illustrate the role of this classic text in the evolution of Jewish law and of Judaism in general.
