Tradition and the Formation of the Talmud offers a new perspective on perhaps the most important religious text of the Jewish tradition. It is widely recognized that the creators of the Talmud innovatively interpreted and changed the older traditions on which they drew. Nevertheless, it has been assumed that the ancient rabbis were committed to maintaining continuity with the past. Moulie Vidas argues on the contrary that structural features of the Talmud were designed to produce a discontinuity with tradition, and that this discontinuity was part and parcel of the rabbis' self-conception. Both this self-conception and these structural features were part of a debate within and beyond the Jewish community about the transmission of tradition. Focusing on the Babylonian Talmud, produced in the rabbinic academies of late ancient Mesopotamia, Vidas analyzes key passages to show how the Talmud's creators contrasted their own voice with that of their predecessors. He also examines Zoroastrian, Christian, and mystical Jewish sources to reconstruct the debates and wide-ranging conversations that shaped the Talmud's literary and intellectual character.

Excerpt from The Pentateuch According to the Talmud: Genesis; With a Talmudical Commentary Tm: question, What is the Talmud? Has, of late years, been brought prominently before the public, both in England and on the Continent; and it is no exaggeration to say, that at no other time have so many attempts been made to open up its arcane. To the world at large, and to bring them within the cognisance of everybody, at all able and willing to form a judgment upon the merits of this huge depository of Jewish tradition. Stimulated by the avidity with which their readers have devoured everything which professed to throw light upon this subject, periodicals of a high literary standard have devoted their pages to it in order to supply what seemed a great desideratum. The problem, however, is still unsolved, and the question, What is the Talmud? Remains precisely where it was before the late Emanuel Deutsch started it in the Quarterly Review.
