| Résumé: | By the time of the Babylonian Talmud, the exemption of women from positive time-bound commandments is ancient history. The Bavli's contribution is far advanced in relation to the work of its predecessors, whether in terms of the problems it sets, its way of solving them, or the manner in which it presents its material. Through a comparison with other rabbinic sources together with an examination of intra-talmudic sources, and an assessment of the compositional techniques of the sugya's creators, the innovative methods and purposes of the redactors are identified and described. The implications of the conclusions for a more fundamental understanding of the Talmud, what kinds of questions engage its editors, what they expect to accomplish in the solution thereof, and the constraints caused by its oral-literary situation are explored. |
