Please publish a written text to this video!

Reading is so much better, as you can skim through it and read in detail what you want. I know some prefer to listen than to read, so both formats covers it all!

Also with text you can print it out (on recycled paper, then recycle it after) ahead of time and read it on Shabbat.

Thank you. Reply

Mishnah, Yerushalmi, Bavli When I study Oral Law, BE"H, I hope to start with Mishnah. Why? The Talmud Bavli does not cover the entire Mishnah. And contra the video, the Bavli does not cover all of the tractates covered by the Bavli. There are numerous tractates of Mishnah not covered by either Gemara. Now, with the Jewish people returning from exile B"H, it is more important than ever to understand the entirety of the Mishnah. In my humble opinion! Reply

not so sure according to the rebbe the yerushalmi talmud is short because of the fact that they didn't need to go through all the questions and answers that are in in the takmud bavli, rather they saw the conclusion with much less effort (also the menora should be made like the rambam, straight not round) Reply
