Editing Talmud (section)

=== Christianity ===
The study of Talmud is not restricted to those of the Jewish religion and has attracted interest in other cultures. Christian scholars have long expressed an interest in the study of Talmud, which has helped illuminate their own scriptures. Talmud contains biblical exegesis and commentary on [[Tanakh]] that will often clarify elliptical and esoteric passages. The Talmud contains [[Jesus in the Talmud|possible references to Jesus]] and his disciples, while the [[Christian biblical canons|Christian canon]] makes mention of Talmudic figures and contains teachings that can be paralleled within the Talmud and [[Midrash]]. The Talmud provides cultural and historical context to the [[Gospel]] and the writings of the [[Apostles in the New Testament|Apostles]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Why Christians Should Study Torah and Talmud|url=http://www.bridgesforpeace.com/teaching-letter/article/why-christians-should-study-torah-and-talmud/|publisher=Bridges for Peace|access-date=July 3, 2006|archive-url=https://archive.today/20120720224747/http://www.bridgesforpeace.com/teaching-letter/article/why-christians-should-study-torah-and-talmud/|archive-date=July 20, 2012|url-status=dead}}</ref>
