Talmud: The Talmud is a collective compilation, summarizing the legislative and mythological ideas written by the sages of Israel, those who dwelt in Babylon or who lived in the land of Palestine.
Talmud is a Hebrew word that means study.
It is a book teaching the Jewish religion.
In another definition, it is a recording of discussions of Jewish rabbis on Jewish law, morals, customs, and authenticated stories from the Jewish heritage.
It is also the primary source of rabbinic enactment in legal proceedings.
The Jews claim that Moses delivered the Talmud to the Children of Israel over Tur Sinai, and preserved it with Aaron, then to Elaz Jar ... until Rabbi Judah arrived, where he placed the Talmud in its current form in the second century BC.
