This book studies Talmudic temporal logic and compares it with the
logic of time in contemporary law.Following a general introduction
about the logical handling of time, the book examines several key
Talmudic debates involving time.The book finds that we need
multi-dimensional temporal models with backward causation and
parallel histories.It seems that two major issues are involved: 1
Actions conditional about future actions (Tenayim), connecting with
backward causality2 Actions involving entities defined using future
events (Breira), connecting with ideas from quantum MechanicsThe
book concludes with a general comparative discussion of the
handling of time in general law and in the Talmud.
