Rabbinic Judaism
Rabbinic Judaism or Rabbinism (or in Hebrew "Yahadut Rabanit" - יהדות רבנית) was the continuation of the Pharisees after the destruction of the Second Temple in 70 CE. It developed through the second to sixth centuries CE. It is to be contrasted with Karaite Judaism, which broke with the Rabbinic Jews over the validity of the oral law, and over procedures used to interpret Jewish scripture, the Torah; and Early Christianity, which developed into a separate religion. Karaite Jews are nowadays a very small group.
