Therefore this section will present the reader with the ways of the Talmud, its interpretations, and its strange and odd sophistry, inconsistent and illogical. The &#8220;interpretations&#8221; of the Scriptures and the Mishnah by the Talmudic Sages is naught but Chazal&#8217;s opinion which forces, distorts, and deforms what was
