From Temple to Text, From Priest to Sage. Creating A Portable Homeland

In this series we will uncover the backstory to the sages of the Mishnah and their living teachings and their teaching lives. We will explore a selection of the stories, adventures, wisdom recorded in the Talmudim and Midrashim beginning with Ezra the scribe and his court and concluding with the students of Judah the Prince. Pirkei Avot: The “Chapters of the Fathers”, will serve as a backdrop to our explorations.
