The Schottenstein Edition of the Bavli Talmud sparked a true revolution in the Jewish world, opening the vast wisdom of the Talmud to hundreds of thousands of people. The Hebrew Schottenstein Edition then continued this breakthrough, bringing ArtScroll's innovative features to tens of thousands of additional readers.
Then it was the turn of the French-speaking public to rejoice, with the publication of the Edmond J. Safra French Edition of the Talmud. In France, Switzerland, Belgium, Israel, and Canada, French speakers can now benefit from all the features of the Schottenstein Edition, superbly adapted into French by a team of scholars, translators, and editors.
