Tarbiẕ (Hebrew: תרביץ, romanizedtarbiṣ) is a quarterly academic journal of contemporary Jewish studies, humanities and religion (including Judaism, Biblical criticism, Talmud, Kabbalah, Jewish customs, and Jewish history). It is published in Hebrew by the Institute of Jewish Studies (now "Mandel Institute for Jewish Studies", Hebrew University of Jerusalem). The journal was established in 1930. Etymologically, the word "Tarbiz" means "place of dissemination of learning," particularly that related to an "academy," or "seat of learning."[1] The editors-in-chief are Roni Goldstein, Moshe Halbertal, Shlomo Neah, and Sarit Shalu-Aini.

  1. ^ Cf. Babylonian Talmud (Menachot 82b, where the Aramaic word תרביצא‎ has been explained by Rashi and the Tosafists as a Beit midrash (House of study) where the Torah is disseminated. In the Soncino English edition of the Babylonian Talmud (s.v. Menachot 82b, note 9) the same word is translated as "the garden where scholars of the academy used to congregate for general discussions."
