In this phrase:

Please add a comma after "Talmud". When a phrase is interrupted by an "or" clause, it needs a comma before and after the clause. "Wikipedia, or the free encyclopedia, is..." not "Wikipedia, or the free encyclopedia is". 123.51.107.94 (talk) 01:42, 31 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Please add a comma after "Germany". It doesn't begin with "or", but it's still rather similar to the previous request. 123.51.107.94 (talk) 01:48, 31 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

In the fourth paragraph of the article, link the word "philosophy" to the page for Jewish philosophy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jewish_philosophy

It appears in the following sentence:

"It is written in Mishnaic Hebrew and Jewish Babylonian Aramaic and contains the teachings and opinions of thousands of rabbis on a variety of subjects, including halakha, Jewish ethics, philosophy, customs, history, and folklore, and many other topics."

confusing to read

edit

this text is very confusing to read, and has an unnecessary diffult style of convuluted english which cloak the meaning of sentences. the introduction is too long and does not come to a point. e.g. already the second sentence 'Until the advent of modernity, in nearly all Jewish communities, the Talmud was the centerpiece of Jewish cultural life and was foundational to "all Jewish thought and aspirations", serving also as "the guide for the daily life" of Jews.' has 3 commas and 4 double quotes and says exactly: nothing. what exactly is "advent of modernity", and "nearly all jewish communities"? many links are useless also. if you hover over philosophy it shows "jewish philosophy is the the philosophy of jews". judaism deserves more than such low quality jibberish texts.
