| | Mishnah |
| | Mishnah, a Hebrew term meaning "repetition" or "study," is the name given to the oldest postbiblical codification of Jewish Oral Law. | | | T R Herford, The Ethics of the Talmud: Sayings of the Fathers (1962); The Mishnah (1931); H L Strack, Introduction to the Talmud and Midrash (1931); J Weingreen, From Bible to Mishna: The Continuity of Tradition (1976). | | | The Mishnah includes some nonlegal material, notably the Pirke Avot ("Chapters of the Fathers"), a collection of wise sayings that forms the final treatise of the Neziqin. |

| | Mishnah |
| | The Mishnah form lent itself most effectively to traditions that were not derived from Scripture or, more commonly, to the unfolding of legal principles whose Biblical roots had been so elaborated that they could be discussed adequately without having to return to their exegetical origins. | | | In some contexts "Mishnah" is contrasted with "Midrash." The latter term denotes Rabbinic teachings that are attached to the text of the Bible, whereas the former term refers to teachings that are organized or formulated independently of Scipture. | | | "Mishnah" therefore has the sense of "that which is memorized by rote," as distinct from the Rabbinic designation for the Bible: "Miqra,"that which is read and recited from a written text. |

| | The Mishnah is the most important collection of the teachings of a group of scholars known as the Tannaim. | | | By the time the Mishnah was composed, Aramaic dialects had supplanted Hebrew as the language of everyday life, and Hebrew had thus become a language employed only for legal and religious purposes. | | | The Mishnah is written like a concise legal text, similar in format to a telegram. |

| | Mishnah |
| | After Judah ah-Nasi reacted and arranged his six orders of mishnah around the beginning of the sixth century AD it was initially described as "Our Mishnah." The Mishnah is divided into six sedarim, orders, Zeraim (Seeds), Mo'ed (Festivals), Nashim (Women), Nezikim (Damages), Kodashim (Holy Things), and Tohorot (Purities): the Talmuds are based on these sedarim. | | | Mishnah (Hebrew, teaching) is Jewish oral law and in particular a collection of oral law completed by Judah ha-Nasi. | | | Later commentators debate as to whether early mishnah collections were in writing, and it is argued that Judah ha-Nasi's Mishnah was only taught orally. |
