Meilleurs avis pour THE TALMUD: A METHODOLOGICAL INTRODUCTION

The choice of material was excellent as was the presentations by both knowledgable instructors.
Would be happy to take additional advanced courses in Talmud skills from them as well.
I was a good course. I learned many things about Talmud that I did nit know before. It gave me a good understanding while reading the book The Talmud.
