Nonprofit offers Talmud in English online for free
For some, the notion of delving into the Talmud in English for free with the click of a mouse was something they could only dream of. Now that dream is becoming a reality.
Sefaria, a nonprofit organization devoted to Jewish text learning, recently announced it had uploaded 22 tractates of the renowned Steinsaltz English-language edition of the Babylonian Talmud and will post the remainder as they are translated and annotated.
The Hebrew version of the Talmud will begin going online by the end of the year. Known as the William Davidson Talmud, the online edition offers parallel translations linked to major commentaries, biblical citations, midrash (ancient rabbinic literature), and halakhah (Jewish law and jurisprudence).
