Jewish Law has a history of more than three thousand years. This extended time, can be divided in two main periods: The first broad period begins with the written Torah and ends with the completion of the Talmud. The second broad period is the post-Talmudic period, from the completion of the Talmud until our own day.
The books for this exhibition come from the holdings of the Rare Books and Special Collections, the Nahum Gelber Law Library Special Collections, and the Humanities and Social Science Library.

Among the books presented we find a volume of the H蹋amishah h蹋umshe Torah: ketav yad Temani. A miniature Shulchan Aruch, printed in Venice, in 1574. One of the centerpieces is The Codex Maimuni: Moses Maimonides' Code of law: the illuminated pages of the Kaufmann Mishneh Torah.
