The Talmud of the Land of Israel, an Academic Commentary

More about the book

Demonstrating that the Yerushalmi forms a systematic compilation of commentaries on the Mishnah, Neusner (religious studies, U. of South Florida; Bard College, NY) outlines the second-fourth divisions of this tractate in the Babylonian Talmud and compares and contrasts them with their counterparts in the Bavli. He focuses on the document's sense-units, how they take shape, and what makes them cohere. There is a vol. no. discrepancy between the CiP and listing elsewhere in the text. No index.
