List of Talmudic tractates

The Mishnah consists of six divisions known as Sedarim or Orders. The Babylonian Talmud has Gemara — rabbinical analysis of and commentary on the Mishnah — on thirty-seven masekhtot. The Jerusalem Talmud (Yerushalmi) has Gemara on thirty-nine masekhtot.[1] The Talmud is the central text of Rabbinic Judaism and the primary source of Jewish religious law (halakha) and Jewish theology.[2]

Structure

Every printed masekhet (tractate) of Talmud Bavli begins on page 2 (with the exception of Middot, Tamid and Kinnim), making the actual page count one less than the numbers below.[3] Note: While the Talmud Bavli has an authoritative page count based on the Vilna edition, an authoritative page count and numbering system does not exist for Yerushalmi, where topics are often referenced by chapter and Mishnah rather than page.

gollark: Is it just a pointless steam-like friends/points/multiplayer thing?
gollark: Also unhelpful.
gollark: Please summarise it sensibly.
gollark: That is a marketing page.
gollark: Again, *what does it do*?
