Talmudic Law

This Guide offers links to sources on Talmudic Law

Pentateuch (Torah)

  • The Oxford encyclopedia of the Bible and law. In comprehensive overviews, scholars address three foci: biblical law itself--its nature, collections, and genres; the ancient contexts of biblical law, throughout the ancient Mediterranean (ancient Near Eastern, Greco-Roman, and Early Jewish); and the afterlife and influence of biblical law in antiquity and in modern jurisprudence around the world.
  • Pentateuch with Targum Onkelos, Haphtaroth and Rashi’s commentary. Five books of the Torah translated into English.
  • The Tanakh (full text in English). Tanakh, is the acronym derived from the names of the three divisions of the Hebrew Bible: Torah (Instruction, or Law, also called the Pentateuch), Neviʾim (Prophets), and Ketuvim (Writings).
