Rabbi Meir
Great Men of the Mishna and Talmud

Rabbi Meir is perhaps the most mysterious of all the rabbis of the Mishnah. Recounting Rabbi Meir's role as provocateur amongst the Mishnaic rabbis, his relationship with his former teacher "Acher" the apostate, and his tragic marriage with Bruria, a scholar in her own right, Rabbi Wein unravels some of the mystery behind this brilliant man whose ideas are foundations of the Mishnah and Talmud.
