It may be said about those who occupy themselves with studying Talmud, that there is no greater way of studying than this.&#8221;<\/font> (Gemara portion of the Talmud).<\/p>\n<p>Hoffman then points out that not only do the rabbis claim a <em>superior<\/em> status of the Talmud over the Bible, but go<em> even <\/em>further, that they, the rabbis, are superior to God! <\/p>\n<p>He again gives proof from the Talmud for this. He shows that the Talmud portrays God as conceding His inferior status to the rabbis and is bound by their decisions:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.realjewnews.com\/to\/pictures\/rebask.jpg\" \/> <font color=\"CC00FF\">&#8220;God sits and occupies Himself with the section of the Red Heifer and He cites a Halakha [Jewish Law] in the name of Rabbi Eliezer.
