Even Samuel Adams Needed Logos' Talmud Collection

DMB

Samuel Adams in a letter to Thomas Jefferson: "To examine the Mishna, Gemara, Cabbala, Jezirah, Sohar, Cosri and Talmud of the Hebrews would require the life of Methuselah, and after all his 969 years would be wasted to very little purpose."

Yes, it's true. Without the Logos' Talmud Collection tomorrow (?), whole centuries of reading could be wasted!

(For the record, the above quote continued in a somewhat negative fashion).
