Talmud with English Transl. & Commentary EHRMAN Bava Mezia Perek Hamafkid

Description: The Talmud; With English Translation and Commentary Bava Mezia Perek Hamafkid ENGLISH-ORIGINAL TEXT VG CONDITION, HARDCOVER -- SOUGHT AFTER TALMUD TRANSLATION! In the 1960s the Talmud was seen as "a sealed book to the majority of the Jewish People", wrote Rabbi Dr Ehrman. He went on to say that the object of this new edition was "to open this sealed volume and to offer it to every Jewish home in a language and in a manner understandable to all; and also to enable one who is not a Jew to acquaint himself with the treasures of Judaism contained in it". At the time, making the Talmud available to English speakers in this way was trailblazing. It was decades before similar ventures were realised (for example by the Steinsaltz and Schottenstein editions). The Talmud El Am prints the original text, punctuated, alongside Ehrman's translation. Below the text is his Commentary, which explains the text and the (mainly) Biblical references within it; Ehrman's text incorporates traditional Talmud Commentaries as well as contemporary scholarship. The Commentary is written as a continuous text, so that anyone unfamiliar with the Talmud may be able to learn. The margins carry articles on points of special interest raised by the text. These 'Realia' are written by contemporary authorities on subjects such as specific customs, philology, law, flora and fauna, often accompanied by illustrations. Notes on the Tannaim and Amoraim are also given here, as and when these Sages figure in the text. The Talmud El Am edition contains Tractate Berakhot, chapters from Bava Metzia (Hammaphqid and Hazzahav), and the halachic section of the opening chapter of Kiddushin (29 Talmudic pages). Hazzahav adds the Jerusalem Talmud – edited by Rabbi Professor Daniel Sperber - at the end of the Babylonian text. The end of Berakhot is the work of Rabbi Dr Alexander Carlebach, who took over the editorship towards the end of Rabbi Dr Ehrman's life.
