This article will discuss developments in manuscript culture as reflected in examples of extant manuscripts of the Babylonian Talmud, a compilation widely considered to be the most authoritative post-biblical Jewish work and the basis of all codes of Jewish law. We shall discuss developments in the textual content of the manuscript and the physical characteristics of Talmudic manuscripts which reflect the shift from orality to textuality. We shall also explore why illumination and illustration did not extend to manuscripts of the Talmud, in contrast to another classical Hebrew works such as those of Maimonides.
