Babylonian Talmud Chagigah

Babylonian Talmud Chagigah: the Babylonian Gemara on Mishnah Chagigah ("Festival Offering"), in the order Mo'ed (Appointed Times). The pilgrim's festival offerings, the limits set on teaching the work of creation and the chariot (Ezekiel 1), and degrees of ritual purity. The Babylonian Talmud (Talmud Bavli) was edited in the academies of Babylonia until about AD 500 or later and became the authoritative Talmud of Jewish law; it quotes each passage of the Mishnah (MISHNAH) and then discusses it (GEMARA), and is cited by folio, as on the page headings here (2a, 2b). It is rabbinic law and teaching, not scripture. English by A. W. Streane, A Translation of the Treatise Chagigah from the Babylonian Talmud (Cambridge University Press, 1891), public domain, transcribed from the page scans; his notes are not reproduced. Streane prints English only; Hebrew and Aramaic from Wikisource's Vilna text, shared out to his paragraphs by folio side.
