	The Bomberg edition of the Talmud established the standard both in terms of page layout as well as pagination (with the exception of the tractate Berachot which follows Bomberg’s second edition).<sup>[]</sup> Prior to the printing of the Talmud, manuscripts had no standard page division, and the Talmud text usually did not appear on the same page as the commentaries, which were contained in separate codices.<sup>[]</sup> The standard page layout in use in all conventional editions of Talmud today (also the accepted method of citing a Talmudic reference) follows the pagination of Bomberg’s [[1523 AD\|1523]] publication.

	=== Originality ===		=== Originality ===
	The earliest printed Talmuds were published by the [[Soncino family (printers)\|Soncino]] family decades prior to Bomberg’s Talmud. Though the Soncinos only printed about sixteen tractates,<sup>[]</sup> Bomberg clearly based his own publication after their model. [[Gershon Soncino\|Gershon]] Soncino claimed that in addition to emulating his layout, Bomberg also copied the texts of the Soncino Talmuds,<sup>[]</sup> a claim some modern scholars, such as Raphael Rabinovicz, have substantiated. Still, Bomberg printed many tractates that Soncino never released, which were obviously rendered directly from manuscripts, and even the editions which may have borrowed from Soncino’s text show evidence of having been supplemented by additional manuscripts.<sup>[]</sup>		The earliest printed Talmuds were published by the [[Soncino family (printers)\|Soncino]] family decades prior to Bomberg’s Talmud.

	Bomberg employed some of Venice’s leading scholars and Rabbis in his publishing house. Besides Rabbi Chiya Meir b.

	In [[1518 AD\|1518]], Bomberg requested and received from the Venetian Senate the exclusive printing rights to the Talmud, and received official endorsement from [[Pope Leo X\|Pope]] Leo X.<sup>[]</sup> Nonetheless, Venetian politicians were suspicions of Hebrew printing.<sup>[]</sup> In [[1525 AD\|1525]], when Bomberg attempted to renew his license for a fee of 100 ducats, the Venetian senate refused, accusing Bomberg’s Hebrew publications of attacking the Catholic faith. Several months later, for a fee of 500 ducats, they approved his appeal and renewed his license.<sup>[]</sup>		In [[1518 AD\|1518]], Bomberg requested and received from the Venetian Senate the exclusive printing rights to the Talmud, and received official endorsement from [[Pope Leo X\|Pope]] Leo X.<sup>[1]</sup> Nonetheless, Venetian politicians were suspicions of Hebrew printing.<sup>[21]</sup> In [[1525 AD\|1525]], when Bomberg attempted to renew his license for a fee of 100 ducats, the Venetian senate refused, accusing Bomberg’s Hebrew publications of attacking the Catholic faith.

	Unlike the previously printed editions of the Talmud, Bomberg’s work was largely uncensored.<sup>[]</sup> In the early stages of his career he cultivated a positive relationship with the [[Vatican]], and he received approval from Pope Leo X for both the publication of Mikraot Gdolot as well as the Talmud.<sup>[]</sup><sup>[]</sup> In later years Hebrew printing was viewed with mounting suspicion. By the end of his career, in the late 1540s, fears of censorship and church opposition caused Bomberg to release editions of the Talmud with backdated cover pages.<sup>[]</sup>		Unlike the previously printed editions of the Talmud, Bomberg’s work was largely uncensored.<sup>[16]</sup> In the early stages of his career he cultivated a positive relationship with the [[Vatican]], and he received approval from Pope Leo X for both the publication of Mikraot Gdolot as well as the Talmud.<sup>[8]</sup><sup>[14]</sup> In later years Hebrew printing was viewed with mounting suspicion.
