Talk:List of Talmudic principles

Suggestion for a change to the way things are explained
After making this edit, where the edit comment says:"(→‎#REDIRECT: change the syntax of the #fragment portion of the URL to work better! This part of the URL is intended to cause the destination (when clicking) to be a certain section -- (currently section 2!) -- of the destination article. (Q.V.))" I started to actually read what it says at the intended section (currently section 2) -- of this article.

Old
Currently the first sentence there (in that section) says:"A law is de'oraita (דאורייתא) if it is derived from the Torah; if a law is derabanan (דרבנן) it is mandated by the rabbinical sages."

Please consider a suggestion (see below) for a change. The reasons for that suggestion include: the fact that the words "that come directly from the Torah" appear as part of the "quote" in (the "ref" tag of) footnote number "[1]" of this article (List of Talmudic principles) ... so ... those words appear in (the wikitext of) the very next paragraph.

New
Suggestion: change the first sentence there, to say:"A law is de'oraita (דאורייתא) if it comes directly from the Torah (written or oral); a law is derabanan (דרבנן) if it was mandated (added) by the rabbinical sages."

This change may not be needed. Some (or all) parts of these suggested changes might not be recommended (by you, the reader[s].)

Any comments would be welcomed. --Mike Schwartz (talk) 17:04, 1 May 2017 (UTC)
