The Mishnah

The Mishnah is a foundational Jewish text compiled around 200 CE that organizes and records oral Jewish laws, teachings, and traditions passed down through generations. Acts as a guide for daily life, religious practices, and ethical conduct. Written in Hebrew, it is structured into six orders covering topics like agriculture, festivals, and civil law. The Mishnah serves as the starting point for subsequent Jewish legal discussions and commentaries, helping preserve Jewish law and tradition in a clear, systematic way.
