The ''Encyclopedia Talmudit'' ((ヘブライ語:אנציקלופדיה תלמודית) ''entsiyklopediah talmudiyt'') is a Hebrew language encyclopedia that aims to summarize the halakhic topics of the Talmud in alphabetical order. It began in 1942 and is still an active project , with 33 volumes published so far. An English translation, the ''Encyclopedia Talmudica'' began to be published in 1969. It is published by the Torah literature publishing group , named for Rabbi Yitzhak HaLevi Herzog, in Jerusalem. ==Formation of the encyclopedia== The project began on the initiative of Rabbi Meir Bar-Ilan (Berlin) (1880–1949), the son of the Netziv. Bar-Ilan organized a group of notable editors. The purpose was to summarize all the Talmudic discussions and all the opinions of Rishonim and Acharonim in encyclopedia articles in alphabetical order. The first edition of the first volume was published in 1947. This volume included 219 articles in an organized format of summaries. The same volume was reprinted three more times: in 1947, 1951, and 1955. After Bar-Ilan died in 1949, it was republished in a newly revised and expanded edition. In 1947 ''Encyclopedia Talmudit'' won the city prize of Tel Aviv for Torah literature to honor the memory of Rabbi Abraham Isaac Kook.〔(הפרדס, תשרי תש"ח ), עמוד 9〕 Major Torah scholars, both Hasidim and Mitnagdim, supported the project. Supporters included Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson, Rabbi Moshe Feinstein, Rabbi Yosef Shalom Eliashiv, Rabbi Yochanan Sofer, and others.〔''Encyclopedia Talmudit'', vol 16, introduction〕 The administrator of the encyclopedia from its founding has been Rabbi (1910–2009), who succeeded in securing the initiative with stable financial backing, thanks to his connections with leaders of the Mizrachi movement. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Encyclopedia Talmudit」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
