Course Description
This year we will be focusing on the age of transition from the world of the Tannaim and Mishna to the world of Amoraim and Talmud, particularly in Babylonia. We will be using the primary texts of rabbinic literature to delve into the end of the Mishnaic period with personalities such as Rabbi Yehuda HaNassi, Rabbi Pinhas ben Yair, and Rabbi Hiya and the beginning of the Amoraic period with Rabbi Yochanan and Reish Lakish in Eretz Yisrael and Rav and Shmuel in Babylonia.
