Packed with information. Very scholarly.,

This review is from: The Talmud, The Steinsaltz Editon, Volume 10: Tractate Ketubot, Part IV (Talmud the Steinsaltz Edition) (Hardcover)
While the Steinsaltz Talmud can be guilty of placing too much information into its work, it's a great book for people with a minimal understanding of the Talmud. As of today June 5, 2000, the material covered in this volume has just been covered in Daf Yomi (page of the day) classes. I recommend it to anyone who has gone through these classes and feels like he (or she) has missed anything in the class.Intended to stand on its own, the Steinsaltz Talmud not only gives the discussion, but also the Halacka and helpful background information about the various scholars represented. The only drawback to studying these volumes is that if you study them alone, you will get lost. A single page in the Talmud goes on for several pages in the Steinsaltz and you can spend so much time absorbing the background info that you lose thread of the discussion taking place. So make sure to study these books with someone who knows a little more than you (or a lot more than you) and you'll be fine. |
