A Talmud or two
The Talmud in Hebrew may appear as TavLamedMemVavFelat ( תַּלְמוּד). It is accepted by many as the central text of "Rabbinic Judaism" and a source of much of modern Jewish religious law and Jewish theology. It became the centerpiece of Jewish cultural life and "Jewish thought and aspirations" becoming a "guide for the daily life" of Jews if we accept the premises of "A History of the Jewish People" by Ben-Sasson, H.H.
The Talmud was an attempt by some through a collection of writings named the Babylonian Talmud (Talmud Bavli) to relieve that confusion. But you do not reduce confusion merely by adding more opinions nor certainly more knowledge. It is the spirit that giveth life.
- 2 Timothy 2:15 "StudyCite error: Invalid
<ref>tag; invalid names, e.g. too many to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth."
The word study means be diligent or endeavor. It is about being a Doer of the Word not a hearer only. That means it is just as important that you hear others as it is to be heard. Often reading and studying can become a distraction from that being diligent.
- Hebrews 4:11 "Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief."
Even the Bible can be misinterpreted and misused but it does warn us in Ecclesiastes 12:12 "And further, by these, my son, be admonished: of making many books [there is] no end; and much study [is] a weariness of the flesh." Which continues to say in verse 13, "Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this [is] the whole [duty] of man.
- 2 Peter 1:10 "Wherefore the rather, brethren, give diligence to make your calling and election sure: for if ye do these things, ye shall never fall:"
Another Talmud
There were earlier collection that became known as the Jerusalem Talmud (Talmud Yerushalmi).[1]
The Talmud is the surviving opinions of many people who wrote and recorded what they believed to be true and passed them down to this day but often with alterations and controversy. Those opinions have been accepted by many but not without objections and claims of contradiction concerning what was written before in sacred texts and their true meaning.
Some of the Talmud seemed to have been kept secret and its condemnations of "pagans", "heathens", and "apostates" found in the text were often believed to be attacks on Christians. By 1520 a more complete version of the Babylonian Talmud was printed by Daniel Bomberg in Venice. This was done under the protection of "papal privilege". By the 1500's millions of Christians and Jews had been persecuted and even murdered by the Church factions who claim to have a more accurate version or interpretation.
Altered and altered
It is well understood that what Moses taught has been altered over the centuries many times as both Israel and Judeans slipped in and out of corruption and apostasy. The Bible itself tells us those stories.
By the time of Jesus, who was called the Christ and who was also called the "King of the Jews" by Jews and foreigners alike, there were many varied Factions at the altar that had diverse opinions about Moses and the prophets.
Those opinions were often so contradictory that there were groups of "Jews" killing other groups of "Jews" in the name of God or Moses. They certainly were not all correct. So who is right?
There should be no doubt there is a great confusion about what God, the LORD, or Creator intended to share with Mankind by speaking to the people of the world, including those calling themselves the Israelites or Jews back then and People now.
Many opinions
Many religions claim to track their origins back to Abraham and Moses and have their own scriptures and different interpretation of the same or different copies of the earliest sacred text.
Who is right or wrong, what is good or evil, will always bring conflict as long as men depend on the tree of knowledge and their own vain opinions rather than the tree of life which is the Holy Spirit.
