The original text of the Jerusalem Talmud is here established on the basis of the editio princeps and the existing manuscripts. The text is fully vocalized. This edition also presents the first scholarly English translation and commentary of the Jerusalem Talmud. All technical terms and syllogisms are explained. The edition will serve as a necessary foundation for the understanding of all rabbinic tradition once the entire Talmud has been commented. First Order: Zeraim / Tractates Kilaim and Seviit is the third volume in the edition of the Jerusalem Talmud, a basic work in Jewish Patristics. This volume presents fundamental Jewish texts dealing with agriculture: forbidden blending of seeds, animal stock, and fabrics (Kilaim), as well as the prohibition of agricultural work during the Sabbatical, when all debts must be remitted (Seviit). This part of the Jerusalem Talmud has almost no counterpart in the Babylonian Talmud. Its study is prerequisite for an understanding of the relevant rules of Jewish tradition.
