In this volume, Dovid Landesman outlines the various styles and structures that make up the body of the Torah literature and clarifies the rhyme and reason behind the methods used by the rabbis of the Talmud and the Torah commentators.
This book is designed to help the individual student understand the interrelated texts and commentaries that comprise Torah study. The author examines the various commentaries printed alongside the Talmud, the literature of Halachah (religious law) from the early period to contemporary times, other texts that a student should be familiar with and an analysis of a Talmudic "discussion."
