About this product

Product Information

The Babylonian Talmud and the Jerusalem Talmud show a myriad of sorrowful situations in various levels and circumstances and a variety of human behavior in these situations. The causes and expressions of sorrow amongst the Sages are different from its parallels amongst common people or women. The descriptions of sorrow vary between the Babylonian and the Jerusalem Talmud. Sorrow and Distress in the Talmud discusses more than 50 stories from both the Babylonian and the Jerusalem Talmud focusing on those issues.
