Seder Olam Rabbah

rdfs:comment

Seder Olam Rabbah (Hebrew: סדר עולם רבה) is the earliest post-exilic chronicle preserved in the Hebrew language. Tradition considers it to have been written about 160 CE by Yose b. Halafta, which is not unreasonable, but it was probably also supplemented and edited at a later period (Strack & Stemberger 1991). In the Babylonian Talmud this chronicle is several times referred to simply as the "Seder Olam" (Shab. 88a; Yeb. 82b; Nazir 5a; Meg. 11b; Ab. Zarah 8b; Niddah 46b), and it is quoted as such by the more ancient Biblical commentators, including Rashi. But with the 12th century it began to be designated as "Seder Olam Rabbah," to distinguish it from a later, smaller chronicle, Seder Olam Zuṭa; it was first so designated by Abraham ibn Yarḥi (Ha-Manhig, p. 2a, Berlin, 1855).
