Moses ben Nahman (1194–1270), also known as Nahmanides or by his initials as the Ramban, was a Spanish rabbi and scholar and one of the leading authors of talmudic literature in the Middle Ages. About fifty of Nahmanides' works have been preserved. The majority of his works are novellae on the Talmud and halakhah. Nahmanides' novellae, which originally covered the entire orders of Mo'ed, Nashim, and Nezikin, achieved new heights in the halakhic and religious literary creativity of Spanish Jewry. This text ends with Bava Mezia 109b.
