Editing Mesechtas Gittin (section)

== Rabbi Yosi's Reasoning is With Him ==
The tractate mentions the unique quality of Rabbi Yosi in relation to all other Tannaim (Mishnaic sages), namely - "Rabbi Yosi nimuko imo" - "his explanation is with him, to give reason for all his words, as he would justify his statements." This means that his approach to learning throughout the entire Torah [as he was ordained from person to person back to Moses, meaning he received the entire Torah] was with reason and explanation (binah), "his reasoning is with him" (unlike other Tannaim who, although they certainly tried to learn with reason and explanation, nevertheless in many matters their approach was "if it is the law, we will accept it"). As we find in the Jerusalem Talmud, when Rabbi Yosi died, understanding ceased.
