Product Description
A fundamental guide for any Gemara student

Over 800 years ago, the Rambam composed his Commentary on the Mishnah with an introduction that served as a guide to the Mishnah and Talmud. It dealt with many fundamental questions, such as:

How did Torah Sheb’al Peh (the Oral Torah) get from Moshe Rabbeinu to us?
What’s the reason for the order of topics in the Mishnah?
Why does the Mishnah record opinions that aren’t accepted?
Which Sages are mentioned in the Mishnah, and what are their relationships with each other?
What rights and limits did the Sages have in adding decrees to the Torah’s laws?
How do we understand the narratives of the Aggadata?

This edition features:
A revised, free-flowing English rendition based on Rav Ezra Korach’s new Hebrew translation of the Rambam’s Judeo-Arabic
The Hebrew and English translations on facing pages
Notes with additional insights into the Rambam’s words
