The Students' Guide Through the Talmud by Zevi Hirsch Chajes
"The author of this important work is one of the greatest nineteenth century rabbis, whose notes figure prominently in the standard edition of the Talmud. How often does such an authority provide a ser of introductory lectures that continue to speak to the twenty first century student?" -- Rabbi Shalom Carmy, Noted Jewish Thinker and Assistant Professor of Bible and Jewish Philosophy at Yeshiva University "Rabbi Zevi Hirsch Chajes was one of the preeminent representatives of Torah and scholarship in the modern era. His introduction to the Talmud is a classic of rabbinic literature and a fitting expression of the manner in which Torah and wisdom can dwell together in harmony. The renewed availability of this English edition is greatly welcomed." --Rabbi Dr. Jeffrey R. Woolf, Senior Lecturer in Talmud at Bar Ilan University "During my experience of over 40 years teaching, I found that this book gave to my students a broad understanding of the total spectrum about the development of early rabbinic literature in Halacha and Aggadah." --Rabbi Dr. Elazar Hurvitz, Professor of Biblical and Talmudic Literature at Yeshiva University
