Rabbis of the Talmud

The Rabbis of the Talmud were Jewish scholars and teachers active roughly from the 1st to 6th centuries CE. They studied, interpreted, and debated Jewish law, ethics, and theology, shaping the evolving Jewish tradition. Their discussions were recorded in the Talmud, a central text that combines legal reasoning, stories, and teachings. These Rabbis contributed significantly to Jewish religious life, creating a system of jurisprudence and ethical guidelines that continue to influence Judaism today. Their work reflects deep scholarly inquiry and a commitment to preserving and understanding Jewish law and values across generations.
