Sifre

Sifre is an ancient Jewish text that provides commentary and interpretation of the Torah, the first five books of the Hebrew Bible. Similar to how a scholar might explain or analyze a religious or historical document today, Sifre offers insights, explanations, and legal discussions to help understand the biblical text more deeply. It was composed around the 2nd century CE and serves as a valuable resource for studying Jewish law and tradition, shedding light on how early Jewish communities understood and applied their sacred scriptures.
