Hi Doug.

I mean the destruction of the second Temple in 70 CE, after which began the
process of Second Temple Judaism becoming Rabbinic Judaism. This took
generations, but most of the sources that we have are from after that date.

Hi Yigal , can you give me any date on this , by "the loss of the temple" do
you mean after the babylon ,  Nehemiah , Ezra time , or after the Roman
invasion in 130ad perhaps.
