Wow, this is really insightful. For someone like me who has read the Torah, Bible and Koran but not the Talmud I have a new perspective. Without this new understanding, I believe I too would have dismissed the Talmud as silly but the context of law practice is helpful. Interestingly, it may be that these thought exercises sparked by Rabbinical practices were what encouraged the formed other religions such as Christianity, Islam and the various other offshoots within these branches. An idea begets an idea which begets an idea… It’s turtles all the way down.
