Detailed explanation-1: -The Talmud has two components: the Mishnah (, c. 200 CE), a written compendium of the Oral Torah; and the Gemara (, c. 500 CE), an elucidation of the Mishnah and related Tannaitic writings that often ventures onto other subjects and expounds broadly on the Hebrew Bible.

Detailed explanation-2: -The Talmud is the source from which the code of Jewish Halakhah (law) is derived. It is made up of the Mishnah and the Gemara. The Mishnah is the original written version of the oral law and the Gemara is the record of the rabbinic discussions following this writing down.
