Aggada
The tractate in the Babylonian Talmud contains a considerable amount of aggada, including a lengthy homily about God at the end of days, lessons from the interactions of Jews and non-Jews interact, and many tales used for moral edificiation and halakhic analysis. The tractate opens with a homily about God sitting in judgment at the end of days with a Torah scroll open before God on His lap. The nations of the world step forward before God to answer the question of what they did to further Torah study. The Roman say they built marketplaces and bathouses. God judges them harshly saying they built these for prostitutes and their own beauty. The Kingdom of Persia steps forward next and says they built bridges and conquered cities. God replies that they did this to collect tolls and impose force labor. The same applies to every nation who steps forward before God. The homily concludes with God instructing the nations to follow the mitzvah of the sukkah and live in it outdoors, but the nations of the world cannot follow this commandment because of the heat from the blazing sun.
