"This series of Talmudic Tales appeared daily as columns originally in The Kansas City Kansan." ~ "THE Century Dictionary defines "Talmudic" as meaning "of, or pertaining to, the Talmud." What is the Talmud?The word Talmud, from the Hebrew "lamad" (learn) and "limmad" (teach), means lesson, tradition or doctrine. The Talmud embodies the civil and religious laws and traditions of the Jewish people, and represents the thoughts of many generations of Rabbis and sages of Israel, dating back as far as 3,000 years. In the Talmud is found much sage, profound wisdom, sparkling, epigrammatic wit and many pertinent parables, legends and anecdotes, each imparting a definite lesson or truth. I have selected from this mass of literature some of the most beautiful and pertinent of these and they are brought to you in brief, easily readable form under the title of "Talmudic Tales.".
