Abstract
The Mishnah, a philosophical law code of ca. 200 AD, stands at the foundation of the Talmud and forms the first document of Judaism beyond the Hebrew Scriptures and presents a full-scale theory of the social order, encompassing an economics, politics and philosophical method. The system, viewed as a whole, makes a statement of hierarchical classification showing that all things derive from one thing and one thing encompasses all things— that is, a philosophy of Judaism akin to the philosophy of Plotinus. This essay spells out the economics of the Mishnah and shows how the various laws bear within themselves a portion of the systemic statement as a whole.
