The '''Talmud''' (also called '''Gemara''' as well as '''Shas''' and also '''Babylonian Talmud''' and by Talmudic commentators '''Sea of Talmud''' or '''Talmud of Babylon''') is the commentary of the Amoraim on the laws stated by the Tannaim in the Mishnah and Baraita, and it is one of the fundamentals of the Oral Torah. There are two compilations that gather within them the innovations and teachings of the Amoraim's study halls: the Babylonian Talmud written by the Amoraim who dwelt in Babylon and the Jerusalem Talmud written by those who dwelt in the Land of Israel. | The '''Talmud''' (also called '''Gemara''' as well as '''Shas''' and also '''Babylonian Talmud''' and by Talmudic commentators '''Sea of Talmud''' or '''Talmud of Babylon''') is the commentary of the Amoraim on the laws stated by the Tannaim in the Mishnah and Baraita, and it is one of the fundamentals of the Oral Torah.
