Jerusalem Talmud Yes, the Jerusalem Talmud is extant, but we do not have the whole thing. Some tractates are around, but others are not. This is also the case with the Babylonian Talmud. Many tractates that are dealt with in Babylonian Talmud are not dealt with in the Jerusalem Talmud, and vice versa. Reply

Realized it is such a precious work Thank you for choosing this subject for the topics of Jewish TV. Without it, I did not realize how precious the daily shiur of Rambam is. I will try my best not to waste his great work.
