@spiritualbibleai: 2. Rise of Rabbinic Judaism With no Temple or priesthood, Judaism transformed. Rabbis (teachers of the Torah) replaced priests (Kohanim) as the spiritual leaders. Synagogues became places of prayer and learning, replacing the Temple’s sacrificial system. The Mishnah (oral law) began to be compiled, eventually forming the Talmud. #ai #torah #jew #jewish #jews
