How far would an act entitled "The Talmud is BS" go?
The first five books of the O.T. IS THE TALMUD, which was the oral law of the Jews. There was many a slip between tongue and lip I suspect, as oral law passed into the first five written books of the O.T.
No it isn't. The first five books of the Old Testament is the Torah.
The Talmud is written record of the traditions of men (Rabbis) that does not in any way come from God.
It would be helpful if you knew what you were commenting about before making a comment.
R is correct here. The Talmud means "commentaries", and there are two main versions.
Is is a body of Jewish law, codified about 750 ad, and is considered by Orthodox followers are being superior to the Torah, and is, I believe, considered to be scripture, and when scripture is mentioned in the bible, I believe the Talmud is included in the definition of the word.
R I would like your thoughts on this, is this your understanding?
Or have you even thought about it.
Seperately, what do you think of the evidence linking the Vedic Brahama God, with his consort Sarah, to be the same as Abraham and his wife Sarah??
That the Jewish religion has its roots in the ancient vedic religion.
There are a LOT of commonalities in the OT and some of the vedic scriptures, which were written long before the OT was penned.
The Talmud is not a book in itself- it is a compilation of the Mishnah (oral law) and the gemorrah (rabbinical commentaries). Now, another name for the Mishnah is the Torah she 'b'peh- the Torah handed down by mouth, and its tranmsmission is recorded as followed in Pirkei Avot (Ethics of the Fathers) also known in the Mishnah as meschta Avot:
Forgive me or praise me for confusing the two. I am not a Jew. It appears from the above that the Torah is the oral tradition and the Talmud is the written compilation of the oral law, which became the first five books of the O.T.
The fact that The Talmud is written record of the traditions of men (Rabbis) that does not in any way come from God, is the very point that I was making in my comment.
I knew exactly what I was commenting about and you have only clarified the point that the O.T. is the written record of the oral laws of the Jews, and does not in any way come from God.
