In a highly graphic manner to make it accessible to ordinary academic inquiry, Neusner identifies the completed units of discourse of the document, shows how they are formed into larger groups or composites, delineates the structure and sequence of composites, explores the logic that governs their order, and underscores the principles of rationality and order that govern throughout. He finds the Talmud to be a commentary to the Mishnah and an amplification of its laws.
