 Tannaim History Summary   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
The division in Babylonia is clearer, though the amora Rav is occasionally spoken of as having tannaitic authority.
The texts that record the traditions of these sages are termed tannaitic, and they include the Mishnah, the Tosefta, the halakhic midrashim, and a broad variety of traditions preserved in the Jerusalem and Babylonian Talmuds.
Traditions that are ascribed tannaitic authority are introduced, almost without exception in the Babylonian Talmud but with frequent exception in the Jerusalem Talmud, with a set of technical vocabulary that employs the root tny.

 Jewish Education at the Lookstein Center - ON THE TEACHING OF TALMUD: TOWARD
In the latter, the tannaitic remarks are in reference to the verses as the source, or support, of legislation, and are thus presented as linear commentaries on the written tradition.
With regard to halakhic tannaitic material, careful separation of the simple meaning of the verse from the legislation of the oral tradition based on the verse trains the pupil to define the exact boundary between text and interpretation.
Because tannaitic and amoraic material share language and identifiable layered structures, and because they both concentrate on direct, actual legislation, the transition from tannaitic to amoraic material is relatively smooth for the learner.

When discordant amoraic and tannaitic statements are confronted, the Bavli appears to adopt a clear traditionalist stance; always deeming the former potentially at fault and liable to be rejected.
The two tannaitic texts are set side by side for the readers to reach their own conclusions as it were.
Despite the apparently conclusive tannaitic evidence against it, Rav's opinion is not declared refuted as is sometimes the outcome of meitivi confrontations.

The next group of texts to be redacted were the halakhic midrashim, also called tannaitic midrashim, on the Books of Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy.
Sifre to Deuteronomy (Sifre D.) is most often thought to be a tannaitic midrash compilation, but it is not a homogeneous work, and different component sections of this work originated in different periods and circles (Fraade 1991, 298).
Sifra to Leviticus and Sifre to Numbers, like the other tannaitic midrashim, probably date from the second half of the third century and underwent further development (Strack and Stemberger 1991, 287, 292).

The best evidence for widespread tannaitic creativity is talmudic uncertainty about the things we know for sure--such as the identity of the Great Hallel.
Tannaitic Judaism was not just a smaller start-up version of ourselves, though it was small.
So much, then, for my re-imagination of tannaitic origins and for the structural pattern of worship that it established: a ritual illusion--though not a delusion--of wholeness, and a tapestry of unprovable but unassailable truths to live by.

Medrashim are compilations of tannaitic material organized as a commentary on the Torah.
There is also a Mekhilta deRabbi Shim'on bar Yochai, but that is rarely referred to, and therefore people would call it by the full name.

During the next centuries, the Amora'im of Palestine and Babylonia analyzed the Mishnah (with the help of the Tosefta and other Tannaitic traditions, known as Beraita) and produced two Talmuds, one in Palestine known as the Jerusalem Talmud about 400 CE and one in Babylonia about 500 CE.

 Shalom and Welcome to Shofar Sounds
In the second Commonwealth when the calendar became lunar-solar, the year began with autumn and the day began with the sunset.
Thus, while in the Pentateuch the word 'day' preceded the word 'night', in the post-biblical literature the word 'night' preceded the word 'day', as in the book of Judith where we are told that Judith said to Holofernes that she served (‘Elohim) 'night and day.' In the tannaitic literature the evening preceded the day.
We must make clear however, that in the Temple the day was reckoned according to the calendar.
