## Description

The Sages brings the world of the Talmud to life, revealing the stories of the men behind its pages. This fascinating multivolume series explores the lives and times of great Jewish sages (azal )their teachers and disciples, their families and professions, the values they cherished and ideologies they opposed, the historical challenges they faced and the creative wisdom with which they faced them. Highly original and profoundly engaging, The Sages draws readers closer to the world of azal while deepening their understanding of our own. This series is the first work by the influential Jerusalem rabbi Binyamin Lau to appear in English.

Review: This series is probably the best history of the development of modern Judaism currently in ... - Pg 311 of the book promises a future 5th volume covering the gradual transition of the Land of Israel from pagan to Christian Roman rule, beginning with the rule of Diocletian in +284 CE. This series is probably the best history of the development of modern Judaism currently in print. The four volumes now available cover the entire 2nd Temple period, the two great wars against Rome, the completion of the Mishnah about +210, and the beginnings of the Talmud through +270 CE. The only negative point on the series is a lack of any index. One hopes that a consolidated names index and subject index will be in the final volume.
Review: A very informative book. - I bought the book to use for a research project.
