In the beginning the author points out the importance of Maimonides work, as a precursor of measures and concepts ruling the present medicine. After an explanation about the origin of Talmud, it refers to the interpretation received at different times which are included in its precepts. Hygienic cares and observance of strict rules for civil life as for times of war, are mentioned by the author. The physician status is also an object of preferred attention in the Talmud, being considered from both a professional and a spiritual point of view.
