Talmud study has been going at Temple Emanu-El for many years, and we’d love you to you join us! We meet, currently on Zoom, Wednesdays from 10-11:30a.m. No experience necessary—just an interest in learning more about this important fundamental text of rabbinic Judaism. There are no Talmudic experts in the group; even those of us who have attended for years are far from expert, but we have continued attending because it’s both interesting and fun.
We have been studying Sanhedrin—the tractate concerning jurisdiction, criminal law and punishments. We will soon be finishing the 6 chapters contained in Part 1 of the book we purchased and will then start Part 2 containing chapters 7-11, whose topics are outlined below. The volume we will use is the Koren Talmud Bavli, Noe Edition, Sanhedrin Part 2 by Rabbi Adin Steinsaltz, which is available from Amazon.
We do not know exactly when we will complete Part 1 but we expect it probably to be in November. If you are possibly interested in joining us, contact Steve Shawl (stephen.shawl@comcast.net), and we can let you know when we are ready to start Part 2.
Here are the chapters:
7. The 4 types of capital punishments, details of crimes which merit stoning (in fact stoning was only actually done if the convict survived being dropped off a 5-meter cliff first)
8. The rebellious son, and other crimes for which the offender is killed before committing the actual prohibition, and the commandments which Jews are to die before violating.
9. Details of crimes meriting capital punishment by burning (actually the pouring of hot lead down the throat, the Sadducee heretics instead used burning at the stake) or beheading; auxiliary punishments
10. Details of crimes meriting capital punishment by strangulation (i.e. hanging)
11. The World to Come and who does not receive it.
