Synopsis
How was the Torah passed down from Sinai to the sages of medieval times? What is the foundation of the Oral Law? How do rabbinic teachings guide not only ritual practice but also the pursuit of ethical and intellectual perfection? In this sweeping work, Rabbi Menaḥem ha-Meiri (1249-1315) offers profound answers. Written as an introduction to Pirqe Abot but far exceeding that purpose, it is a masterful account of the transmission of Torah, a theological defence of rabbinic tradition, and a reflection on the ideals that have shaped Jewish life through the ages. With a lucid English translation and extensive annotations, this edition brings Meiri’s clarity to the personalities, politics, and philosophies that defined the rabbinic world—and illuminates the enduring chain of our sacred tradition.
