How has the Talmud had an influence on Jewish history?

* How has the Talmud had an influence on the next 1,000 years of Jewish history and why? The Talmud has been the core source of Jewish knowledge for two thousand years. When the Rabbis have a question of how to apply the Bible to modern times, they must base their conclusion on precedent that had its sources in the Talmud. Today Jewish Law had been codified in a book that is called the Shulchan Aruch. * Ok, but the way I see the Talmud is a tradition book handed down. The Mezuzah, a mild det

THE MYSTICAL LIGHT OF CHANUKAH

By Rabbi Michael Skobac Chanukah coincides each year with the reading of the story of Joseph in the cycle of weekly Torah portions. Our sages have discovered numerous connections between this holiday and the Joseph narrative.
