Full Description
The scholars of the Talmud and
Midrash had an immeasurable
impact on Judaism. Throughout
centuries of Jewish history,
students of Jewish law have
tried to understand the meaning
and application of their words.
It is important to know who
these scholars were who made,
and continue to make, such a
significant impact on Jewish life.
This work portrays fifteen of these
scholars based on the stories
of their lives that appear in the
Talmudic and midrashic traditions.
By weaving the original accounts
together with insightful analysis,
the writer provides a human
portrait of these great masters
while remaining faithful to the
poetry of the original narratives.
